52 WEEKS OF TREATS // Healthy and Simple Recipes for Pets // Ammo the Dachshund

Having already purchased my copy I can attest that this ebook has stunning photos and lots of great easy to follow (and make) recipes.

I was a bit worried at first that I might not be able to test out all the recipes in the ebook, because I have a sensitivity to yogurt. But I was ecstatic to see that the book lists a handy substitution chart for dogs with allergies – and I learned that I can easily substitute Almond Milk Yogurt or Coconut Milk Yogurt for any recipes that require yogurt. Yippee!

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium banana (ripe)
  • 1 cup shredded carrots

Directions: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, lightly spraying a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkling a little flour onto the surface you’re planning to use to roll out the dough. In a medium bowl, mash up the banana and mix in the shredded carrots. Then add water and apple juice. Stir. Next, add the oats and flour. Stir all of the ingredients together until they are thoroughly combined.

Using your hands, knead the mixture until a dough forms. Dump the dough onto the lightly floured surface that you prepared earlier. Roll it out until it’s about a half inch thick. Using a cookie cutter, cut into 3″ pieces. Place the pieces onto your lightly sprayed baking sheet. Bake the dog treats for 25 minutes.

Before “serving”, let them cool completely. Here’s a tip that you may find useful: If your dog likes a little more crunch to his treats, then turn off the oven and let the treats cool there overnight.
