This is a healthy dog bone treat. I have replaced regular flour with rice flour. Rice flour is soft, so you might need to adjust the amount of rice flour. Store the treats in the refrigerator for a few weeks at the most.

How To Make molly's carrot & apple sauce dog bones (cookies)

  • 1
    Turn on Oven to 325 degrees F.
  • 2
    Mix the flour with cinnamon. Next combine the 4 oz. Baby Food apple sauce, 4 oz. Baby Food Carrots & Canola Oil with the flour & cinnamon mixture.
  • 3
    Mix the dough together with spoon or spatula. Knead the dough with your hands. If the dough is too soft, add more flour. I used rice flour. If dough is too thick, add a teaspoon or two of water. I didn't need to add the water.
  • 4
    Roll the dough out on a slightly floured board. I used the rice flour. Roll the dough out until it is 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch thick. Use a dog bone cookie cutter that is appropriate size for your dog.
  • 5
    Place the treats on a cookie sheet with either a silicone mat or a lightly greased cookie sheet. I found that I needed to bake the treats for at least 20 minutes. I wanted to be sure the treats were hard.
  • 6
    One could turn off the oven after the treats are baked and leave them in the oven for another hour or two. I didn't do that. I might do that next time.
  • 7
    After the treats cool, store them in the refrigerator.
