Ingredients

  • 10 ounces potato peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces / about 1 large
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F / 180°C.
  • Place rolled oats in the bowl of a food processor and grind them until they are almost a flour consistency – 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • Fill a small sauce pan with water and add cut up potato. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook potato until it is easily pierced with a knife – about 10 minutes.
  • Drain potato and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add ground oats, egg, cheese, coconut oil and dried parsley.
  • Press cooked potato through a ricer, or mash up with potato masher, then add to mixing bowl.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Roll out dough to 1/8” thick and cut out treats with a 2” cookie cutter, or use a small cookie scoop to portion treats, flattening into a disk.
  • Place on parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20 – 24 minutes.
  • Cool completely before giving to your dog.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
