Prep Time 0 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups Whole Wheat Flour (or oat flour for gluten-sensitive pups)
  • 1 cup Grated Carrots
  • 0.5 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Peanut Butter (xylitol-free ONLY)
  • 0.25 cup Water (plus more if needed)

Equipment

  • - Baking Sheet
  • - Parchment Paper
  • Medium Bowl
  • Wire rack
  • Dog-bone shaped cookie cutters

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, unsweetened applesauce, and xylitol-free peanut butter until well combined.

  3. Stir in the grated carrots until evenly distributed throughout the wet mixture.
    1 cup Grated Carrots
  4. Gradually add the whole wheat flour (or oat flour) to the bowl, mixing until a stiff dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add water, one tablespoon at a time, until it’s workable but not sticky.
    1.5 cups Whole Wheat Flour, 0.25 cup Water
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ¼-inch thickness. Use your favorite dog-bone shaped cookie cutters to cut out the cookies.
  6. Place the cut cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are firm to the touch. They should be crunchy when cooled.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Ensure they are thoroughly cooled before serving.
