Green Pea & Rice Flour Cookies 🐾

Prep: ⏱️ 10 min

Soft and healthy cookies for dogs, made with green peas and rice or coconut flour, perfect for a nutritious treat.

Ingredients

  • 🥄 1/2 cup boiled green peas, mashed 🥦
  • 🥄 1/2 cup rice or coconut flour 🍚
  • 🥄 1 teaspoon curd (yogurt)

Instructions

  1. 1. 🔥 Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
  2. 2. 🥣 In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together. Since coconut flour absorbs a lot of moisture, allow the mixture some time to come together. It will be different from regular dough, but it should be manageable.
  3. 3. 🍪 Scoop small amounts of the dough with your palms to shape into cookies.
  4. 4. 🛋️ Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and place the cookies on it.
  5. 5. ⏲️ Bake for 20 minutes. The cookies will be soft and might break apart easily at first. They will firm up as they dry over the next day or two.

Health Benefits

  • Green peas are a good source of vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants, supporting overall health.
  • Rice or coconut flour is gluten-free and easy to digest, making it suitable for dogs with sensitive stomachs.
  • Curd (yogurt) adds probiotics, promoting a healthy gut.

Tips

  • 💡 For a crunchier texture, bake for an extra 5 minutes.
  • 💡 Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • 💡 You can substitute curd with a lactose-free yogurt if your dog is sensitive to dairy.
  • 💡 Coconut flour is highly absorbent, so you may need to adjust the amount of curd to get the right dough consistency.
