BestBullySticks.com we know you don’t want to deny your pooch the simple things in life that are just for fun; like cookies! Dog Pack Snacks whipped up this dog-friendly cookie recipe that will make your pooch jump for joy, wag for wonder and smile for seconds!

This recipe makes a small batch of about 20 medium sized cookies but can be easily doubled if you need to make a larger batch. 

Ingredients

• 1 cup flour – I use oat flour but feel free to use wheat if your dog tolerates wheat.
• 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
• 1/3 cup carob chips
• 2 medium eggs – if your dog has issues with protein, use one egg and 1/4 cup of water instead.
• 1/2 tablespoon of ginger
• 1/4 tablespoon of vanilla

Directions

1. Mix the eggs, ginger and vanilla together, then add the flour, coconut and carob chips one at a time.  Combine the ingredients into a thick sticky dough.
2. Use a melon ball scoop to portion the dough onto your baking sheet.  Be prepared, the dough will stick to the scoop. If you want larger cookies, use a larger melon scoop.
3. Then use your thumb to flatten the middle of the little dough balls.  Again, this is sticky!
4. Bake at 350 degree, near the top of the oven for 25-30 mins until light brown and crisp.
