Sweet Potato-Mint-Apple Biscuits

Sweet potato, fresh mint, and Granny Smith apples make this cookie hard to resist!

INGREDIENTS:

• 3/4 cups organic mashed plain sweet potatoes
• 3 TB chicken or beef broth (I make my own – but if you purchase, please make sure onion, onion juice, or onion powder is not an ingredient if buying a commercial brand). You can also just use water
• 2 1/2 cups organic Buckwheat flour (you can use garbanzo been flour as well – or if your pooch doesn’t mind grains, you can also use whole wheat flour)
• 1/4 cup finely chopped organic mint
• 1 organic Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and grated

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together sweet potatoes and broth.
3. Add the flour, mint, and apples, and stir until combined.
4. Knead the dough a few times until it holds together.
5. On a generously floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 thickness.
6. Use cookie cutter to cut out shapes.
7. Transfer cookie shapes to baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
8. Bake until dried, and just slightly golden, about 35-40 minutes.
9. Turn off the oven and let the treats cool in the oven for another 1-2 hours

Store in an airtight container for up to a week.  Treats can also be frozen for a longer period.
