Blueberry Hemp Dog Treats

Feeding a variety of anti-inflammatory foods to your dog is an excellent way to support his or her overall health, and making your dog’s treats at home is an easy way to incorporate superfoods into their diet. With that in mind, I want to share my anti-inflammatory Blueberry Hemp Dog Treats with you, which contain a handful of superfoods. These treats are…

• Gluten-free
• Grain-free
• Dairy-free
• Filled with superfoods
• Free of artificial ingredients
• Hypo-allergenic
• Tasty and delicious

These Blueberry Hemp Dog Treats contain blueberries, coconut flour and hempseeds, making them a superfood cookie. The coconut flour takes the place of grain-based flours, making it great for dogs who are sensitive to grains. These treats are dog-approved and you can feel good about feeding them to your four-legged companion.

Recipe: Blueberry Hemp Dog Treats

Makes: 14 treats
Cook Time: 10-12 minutes

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup coconut flour
• 1 large egg (Or 1 flax egg if your dog is intolerant to eggs. Combine 1 Tbsp. ground flaxseeds + 3 Tbsp. warm water and let sit for 10 minutes to thicken)
• ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries (preferably organic), chopped
• ½ tsp. baking soda
• 2 Tbsp. hemp seeds
• 4 Tbsp. applesauce (preferably organic; be sure to use unsweetened with no added ingredients)
• 4 Tbsp. water

Directions

1. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Next, add the coconut flour to a mixing bowl and add in the egg. If using a flax egg, combine 1 Tbsp. ground flaxseeds and 3 Tbsp. of warm water. Allow the flax egg to sit for 10 minutes and then add to the coconut flour.
3. Mix in the hemp seeds, baking soda and applesauce and stir well.
4. Add the water and stir.
5. Next, gently fold in the blueberries.
6. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the baking sheet and gently flatten with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies start to brown.
8. Allow cookies to cool for 10-15 minutes before removing them from the baking sheet.

These cookies will keep fresh for a few days when stored in a sealed container and kept in the fridge.
