1. Chicken Chip Dog Treats Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup chicken chips (dehydrated or freeze-dried chicken breast, thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour or oat flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 egg

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Crush Chicken Chips: Place the chicken chips in a plastic bag and crush them into smaller pieces using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat mallet. You want them to be broken down into small crumbs.
  3. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed chicken chips, whole wheat flour (or oat flour), unsweetened applesauce, and egg. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, you can add a little water or more applesauce to reach the right consistency.
  4. Roll Out Dough: Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness.
  5. Cut Shapes: Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes from the dough. You can use bone-shaped cutters or any other fun shapes that your dog enjoys.
  6. Bake: Place the cut-out shapes onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the treats are golden brown and firm to the touch.
  7. Cool: Remove the treats from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Serve: Once cooled, these chicken chip dog treats are ready to be enjoyed by your furry friend! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
These homemade chicken chip dog treats are sure to be a hit with your pet and can be a healthy alternative to store-bought treats. Remember to always supervise your pet when giving them homemade treats, especially if they have any dietary restrictions or allergies. Enjoy!
