Blueberry Twist Dog Treats

Full disclosure: I really thought these blueberry dog cookies would be prettier. When it comes to writing dog treat recipes, of course they need to be heathy and tasty but bonus points if the treats look good too. Like these Baked Peanut Butter Banana Dog Biscuits… they are adorable AND tasty!!!!

These had all the makings of a really pretty, cool looking dog treat with the blue and orange colors but I’ve got to admit.. they are kind of fugly.

That being said though, every single one of my dogs will run full speed across the yard for these things so they may be kind of ugly to look at but the flavors work and they my pups favorites by a landslide!!

Nutritional Benefits of Blueberries and Carrots

• Blueberries: Packed with antioxidants, blueberries help support your dog’s immune system, improve brain function, and reduce inflammation.
• Carrots: Rich in beta-carotene, fiber, and vitamins, carrots promote good vision, digestion, and overall health.
• Combined Power: These ingredients together offer a delicious and nutrient-dense snack that supports your dog’s overall well-being.

Homemade dog treats let you control exactly what goes into your pup’s snacks—no preservatives, fillers, or artificial ingredients. This recipe combines the natural sweetness of blueberries and carrots, creating a nutritious and delicious treat that your dog will love!

Ingredients:

• Oat flour (or blended rolled oats)

Blueberry Carrot Twist Dog Cookies

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook the carrots: Slice your carrots into small pieces into a microwave safe bowl, add a splash of water, cover and cook 3-5 minutes or until soft. Mash or puree and let cool.

1. Puree the blueberries: Run the blueberries through a small food processor to puree until smooth.

1. Mix the ingredients: In a bowl, combine oat flour, applesauce, egg, and melted coconut oil. Stir until a dough forms.
2. Split the dough: Divide the dough equally into two separate bowls. Add blueberries to one, carrots to the other. Stir each to combine the ingredients.
3. Shape the cookies: Roll out small strips of each dough (about 6 inches long). Gently twist the two together and finish by twisting the ends so they won’t unravel.

1. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cookies are golden and firm.

1. Cool and serve: Let the treats cool completely before giving them to your pup. Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for longer-lasting treats.
