Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the oat flour and cinnamon, and stir until evenly mixed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, coconut oil, and egg until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft but firm dough forms.
- Fold in the finely chopped cranberries until evenly distributed.
- Lightly flour a work surface with a small amount of oat flour and place the dough on it.
- Roll the dough to 1/4 inch thickness with a rolling pin.
- Cut the dough into strips about 5 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.
- Arrange the strips on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each stick.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the sticks are firm and lightly golden.
- Turn off the oven and leave the sticks inside for 15 minutes to dry and become crunchier.
- Remove from the oven, cool the sticks completely on a rack, then store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use only unsweetened cranberries and applesauce made without xylitol, added sugar, or artificial sweeteners.
- Let the sticks cool completely before storing to prevent moisture buildup and mold.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 to 7 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Always introduce new treats gradually and watch your dog for any signs of allergy or digestive upset.
