In celebration of Zoey's 3rd birthday we're having a party! Time to get in the kitchen and make some birthday treats. I love to use spent grains from Reed's brewing to make baked goods (there's actually a loaf of bread baking in the oven right now). Luckily for me, he just brewed yesterday and saved some grains. I could only find one recipe for spent grain dog biscuits online and while they sounded good they were boring. So I came up with my own.
Organic Peanut Butter, Carrot & Blueberry Spent Grain Cookies.
Recipe below.
I can't believe it's been 3 years already. Look how small Zoey was when we first got her at 6 weeks old :)
MY RECIPE
2 cups Spent Grains
1 cup Organic Whole Wheat Flour
1 Egg (Local from Free Range Chickens)
1/2 cup Organic Creamy Peanut Butter
1/4 cup Organic Carrots, Chopped
1/4 cup Organic Blueberries, Cut in half
Mix all ingredients except the blueberries until combined
Gently mix in the blueberries
Grease cookie sheet
I used Refined (instead of Unrefined) Organic Coconut Oil because it has a high heat point of 365 degrees
Pat dough into 1-2" rounds approximately 1/4" thick
Our dog birthday party was today so I wanted to make some extra special bone shaped cookies. I rolled out some of the dough and used a bone cookie cutter for a few cookies.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Reduce oven to 225 degrees and continue baking for 1.5 - 2 hours. This dries out the cookies so they become harder.
Party Time!
