Ingredients
  

Gluten-Free Delights Biscuits Ingredients
  • 2 cups Oats, gluten-free certified Provides a good source of fiber for digestive health and sustained energy.
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce Adds natural sweetness and moisture, with fiber to aid digestion.
  • 1/4 cup Peanut Butter (xylitol-free and unsalted) A tasty source of protein and healthy fats, promoting energy and a shiny coat. Ensure it's xylitol-free, as this is toxic to dogs.
  • 1 Egg Binds the ingredients together and provides protein essential for muscle development and overall health.
  • 1/4 cup Shredded Carrots A fantastic source of beta-carotene, promoting good vision and a healthy immune system, plus adding fiber.
  • 1 tsp Coconut Oil Offers healthy fatty acids that can support skin and coat health.
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder (gluten-free) Helps the biscuits rise and achieve a pleasant texture.

Equipment

  • Large Bowl
  • - Baking Sheet
  • - Parchment Paper
  • Rolling Pin
  • Cookie cutters
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the gluten-free oats and gluten-free baking powder until well combined.
    2 cups Oats, gluten-free certified, 1/2 tsp Baking Powder (gluten-free)
  3. Add the unsweetened applesauce, xylitol-free peanut butter, egg (or flax egg), shredded carrots, and coconut oil to the bowl with the dry ingredients.
    1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce, 1/4 cup Peanut Butter (xylitol-free and unsalted), 1 Egg, 1/4 cup Shredded Carrots, 1 tsp Coconut Oil
  4. Stir all ingredients together until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms. It should be firm enough to handle.
  5. On a lightly floured surface (using gluten-free oat flour or a little more oats), roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use your desired cookie cutters to shape the biscuits.
  6. Place the shaped biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch and lightly golden brown on the edges.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
