Ingredients:

• 1 cup organic whole wheat flour
  • Contains fiber, protein, carbs, vitamins, and minerals
    • **Also contains a protein called gluten, which can be a trigger for allergies in some dogs 
• 2 oz. finely grated organic cheddar cheese
  • Contains protein, calcium, vitamin A, essential fatty acids, and B-complex vitamins
    • **You can choose low fat cheddar, Swiss and Monterrey Jack, or you could use a non-dairy choice like almond milk cheese
• 2 slices of uncured bacon cooked extra-crispy and crushed into bits 
  • Fat can be a source of energy, but bacon should be used sparingly as it is high in fat and sodium
• ¼ cup organic unsweetened applesauce
  • Has fiber which will help keep your dog’s digestion working at its best
• ¼ cup water

Directions

1. With a fork, whisk together the flour, bacon, and cheddar cheese in a large bowl until well-combined

2. In a medium bowl, stir together the applesauce and water.

3. Pour the applesauce mixture into the flour mixture and stir until combined

4. Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap, and place the dough onto the wrap.

5. Lay another piece of plastic wrap on top of the dough and twist the ends together.

6. Using your hands in a rolling motion, form the dough into a log.

7. Place in the freezer for 45-60 minutes.

8. Preheat oven to 325° F

9. Spray a baking sheet with an organic non-stick cooking spray (I used an organic olive oil spray)

10. Unwrap the log of dough and slice into 1/4 inch thick cookies.

11. Evenly spread the cookies on the baking sheet.

12. Bake for 25 minutes.

13. Cool completely on a wire rack for a softer treat, or turn oven off and let cool in oven for a crunchier treat.

14. When completely cool, let your pup enjoy!

Refrigerate for approximately 2 weeks or freeze for approximately 6 months

Ingredients

• 1 boneless, skinless organic chicken breast, boiled (***save broth from boiling)
  • Good source of Omega 6 fatty acids which are good for the skin and coat, essential amino acids and glucosamine for healthy bones
• 1/4 cup fresh organic blackberries
  • Loaded with antioxidants to fight free radicals, and also have plenty of fiber and vitamins
• 2 1/2 cups organic millet flour
  • Healthy carbohydrate high in phosphorus, B-vitamins, and iron. Phosphorus is essential for healthy bones, and iron maintains energy levels and overall health
• 1 Tablespoon organic extra virgin coconut oil
  • MCTs in coconut oil can aid in digestion and improve brain energy and mental function
• 1 teaspoon organic ground turmeric
  • Antioxidant that boosts the immune system
• 2 cups of chicken broth from the boiled chicken above
  • Using the broth created from the water you boiled the chicken in is safer for dogs because unlike store-bought chicken broth it will be free of unhealthy and harmful ingredients such as salt, onion, and other additives

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350℉
• line cookie sheet with parchment paper
• Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth
• Pour mixture onto the parchment paper and using a spatula, smooth mixture until it is about 1/4 inch thick
• Bake for 15 minutes, then remove cookie sheet. At this point the mixture should be formed enough to cut. Using a pizza cutter, cut into squares
• Return cookie sheet to oven and cook another 15-25 minutes (depending on how crunchy your pup likes his/her treats
• Turn off oven and let squares sit inside oven until the oven completely cools (or remove and set squares on a cooling rack for less-crunchy treats)

Treats should last about 2 weeks in a container in the refrigerator, or you can freeze them (Ours never last that long before they are all gone!)
