Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt (optional, only if your dog tolerates a tiny amount and it's suitable for their diet). Whisk them together until well incorporated.2 cups Whole Wheat Flour, 1 teaspoon Baking Powder, pinch Salt
- In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, egg, and olive oil until smooth.1 cup Unsweetened Applesauce, 1 Egg, 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until a stiff dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add a teaspoon of chicken broth at a time until it reaches the desired consistency. If too wet, add a tablespoon of flour.1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth, 2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently for about 1-2 minutes until it’s smooth and pliable.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness using a rolling pin.
- Use dog-bone shaped cookie cutters or a knife to cut out your biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch. They should feel and sound crunchy when tapped.
- Turn off the oven, prop the door open slightly, and let the biscuits cool completely inside. This helps them harden up and become extra crunchy.
