Ingredients

  • 2 large carrots scrubbed clean and cut into chunks (no need to peel)
  • 2 cups oats (old fashioned, 1-minute oats, or instant)
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter c
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 300F (150C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the carrots to a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork tender, 5 - 10 minutes. Drain the carrots.
  • Add the boiled carrots along with the oats and peanut butter to a food processor and mix well until the carrots and oats are broken down and a soft sticky dough forms. If your dough is too wet, add more oats. If your dough is too dry, add more peanut butter or carrots.
  • Remove from the food processor and place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper. Place another sheet of parchment paper on top, use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to about ½ inch (1.3 cm) thick.
  • Cut the dough into treats. I used this bone-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the treats but you could use any cookie cutter, or just cut them into squares with a knife or pizza cutter. Gather any dough scraps, and reroll to make more treats.
  • Bake for 35 - 40 minutes, until the treats are dry and lightly browned on the bottoms, (they will still feel soft when first removed from the oven). The treats will get a bit firmer once they are cool. Let cool before giving one to your pup. Store in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or I like to store them in my freezer which makes them firmer and makes them stay fresh for a long time.
