Microwaveable Dog Treats

Posted on September 7, 2011. Filed under: Miscellaneous |

These treats are quick and easy to make.  I can’t vouch for their flavor, but our pups seem to like them.

I make my own liver powder for treats by cooking, dehydrating, and grinding liver.  The smell is such that the dehydrating must be done on the front porch (sorry UPS), but I think it’s worth the effort.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup dry milk
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 cup oatmeal
  • 1/4 cup flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 2 tbs dried liver powder (or beef bouillon powder)
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup water

Combine dry ingredients.

Add the butter, egg, and water and mix.  I use a combination of butter and bacon grease.

The dough will probably be quite moist.  Let it rest for about 30 minutes to absorb the moisture.  Start scooping and rolling the dough into balls.  My scoop is about 1 tbs.

Microwave at 50% power for 5 minutes.

I usually dehydrate them for a couple hours after cooking.

    While I am not removing my previous posts, my focus has changed since I started this blog. After tipping the scale at 200 lbs in 2016, I decided it was time for a change. I joined Weight Watchers and lost 75 lbs. I have created many tasty, low point recipes that I hope will help others.
