Amy’s Got Crackers // Love and Gratitude in a Treat

Amy’s Got Crackers // Love and Gratitude in a Treat

This recipe was originally featured in an article I wrote for Pet Friendly magazine in 2009. It has been adapted to a crunchy treat for one of my canine companions, King Svenny by his dog walker extraordinaire, Ms. Amy. Of Bluffton, South Carolina. “With an attitude of gratitude for her service heart, I want to send a shout out, “Thank you, Ms. Amy!”

I also wanted to share this recipe with my tribe of Rockstar PSP’s and Chefs —you! Oh, and these crackers are good for people. So delicious!

 

 

Servings: 3 dozen large crackers

Ingredients:

3 cups organic gluten-free oats
2 cups organic gluten-free flour
1 – 15 oz. can organic pumpkin (BPA-free can if possible) 1 cup finely grated carrots

2 egg yolks

1⁄2 cup parsley leaves (cleaned, spun dry, finely chopped)

4 tablespoons cold-pressed flaxseed or coconut oil

2 tablespoons organic unsulfured molasses

2 tablespoons oregano

1⁄2 teaspoon turmeric

Optional: water, if necessary, to smooth out dough. Extra flour and oats to roll dough if using cookie cutters.

Equipment:

  •  Rolling pin (if rolling and using a cookie cutter)
  •  2-4 cookie sheet pans (will depend on size of

cookies you bake)

  •  Baking or parchment paper, or silicone baking mat

(I prefer the mat)

  •  Desired dog biscuit cookie cutters
  •  Extra flour or oats for rolling the dough

 

Instructions:

Prepare ingredients as suggested above.

Preheat; convection air oven to 325°F, or 350°F in a standard oven.

In a stand mixer with paddle attachment, add all ingredients and mix on low speed until uniformly combined and a firm ball of dough is formed.

Add water if needed to soften dough enough to roll nicely.

Remove dough onto a flour-dusted surface. Roll out to 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 inch thickness.

Cut with your desired dog biscuit cookie cutters, transfer to parchment-covered baking sheets. At least a half inch apart.

Larger cookies bake about 30 -40 minutes. Small to medium cookies bake about 25-35 minutes.

Remove from oven halfway through baking and turn over. Place back in oven.

Cookies should be dried and crisp. But not over cooked and browned.

Note: I often turn the oven off and just let them dry up, in the oven, with the oven door vented. Keep an eye on them.

Storage: There’s a lot of moisture in this recipe. These cookies must be entirely dry if storing in a cookie jar, at room temperature. I prefer keeping them in baggie, in the fridge or freezer. They’ll last a long time. “Especially in a humid climate.”

Four Key Consistencies

Four Key Consistencies

What’s something hard to find and almost impossible to recover once lost? Your integrity. When we think about integrity, we typically see it as a trait on the same level as honesty or truthfulness. However, we could protect our integrity if we saw it as the sum of our honesty, discretion, and respect, especially in a luxury setting.
