Health Recipe ∞ Heavenly Health Dog Biscuits

We had an Aussie Mix with terrible skin allergies. They were so bad that we had to put her on shots. Finally, a groomer in Austin, Texas suggested eliminating corn from my dog's diet. Since we have had difficulty finding corn-free treats, I developed this recipe. Both our dogs love them!

Ingredients

• 1 ¾ cups rolled oats
• ¾ cup golden flax seeds
• ⅓ cup brewers' yeast
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 cup brown rice flour
• 2 cups oat flour
• 2 tablespoons organic raw sugar
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 ¾ cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 eggs

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets.
2. Combine oats, flax seeds, brewer's yeast, cheese, rice flour, oat bran flour and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk together chicken broth and eggs; mix with oat mixture to make a fairly stiff dough.
3. Roll dough into 1 inch balls, then flatten into discs. (Or, roll dough out on a floured surface to 1/4 or 3/8 inch thick and cut into 1-inch x 1 1/2-inch rectangles.) Place on cookie sheets 3/4 inch apart.
4. Bake until dry and the edges turn a light golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool before serving.
