Ingredients
- 1 cup 240g cooked, mashed sweet potato
- 2½ cups 300g whole wheat flour
- ¼ cup 60ml unsweetened applesauce
- 2 large eggs
- 2 –4 tbsp 30–60ml water, as needed
Instructions
Prep the Oven
- I preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking for these Sweet Potato Dog Cookies.
Mix Wet Ingredients
- In a large bowl, I combine 1 cup mashed sweet potato, 2 eggs, and ¼ cup applesauce, stirring until smooth to form the base of these wholesome dog biscuits.
Form the Dough
- I gradually add 2½ cups whole wheat flour, mixing until a dough forms. If too dry, I add 2–4 tbsp water, one tablespoon at a time, until workable for this nutritious pet treat.
Roll and Cut
- On a lightly floured surface, I roll the dough to ¼-inch thickness. Using bone-shaped cookie cutters, I cut out shapes, re-rolling scraps as needed for these pup-friendly snacks.
Bake the Cookies
- I place the cut-outs on the baking sheet and bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and firm, filling the kitchen with a cozy aroma for these wholesome dog biscuits.
Cool and Store
- I cool the cookies on a wire rack completely before serving or storing, ensuring a crisp texture for this Sweet Potato Dog Cookies batch.
Notes
- You can freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months.
- Ensure all ingredients are dog-safe and free from added sugar, salt, or artificial sweeteners like xylitol.
