Make your own calming treats for when your dog needs a little more emotional support and perfect for a bedtime nibble.
You will need:
2 Level tablespoons of Hedgerow Hounds Tranquil blend or 2 chamomile teabags
250g Flour of choice and a little extra for dusting
125g Gluten free porridge oats
1 cup of Oat, Coconut or Goats milk
1 beaten egg (free range)
1 level teaspoon of Chia seeds
Optional 1 level teaspoon of Almond nut butter (must be xylitol and palm oil free) Pip & Nut is great
Baking tray and rolling pin
Coconut oil for lightly greasing the tray or baking parchment
How to make:
Place the Tranquil blend or tear open the Chamomile tea bags, into the flour, with the beaten egg, oats, nut butter and chia seeds. Gradually add in the milk, while stirring, until a dough starts to form.
Knead and bring the dough together to form a ball.
Lightly dust the surface and rolling pin and roll out the dough to an even thickness.
With your favourite cookie cutter shapes, cut out and place onto the baking tray which is either lightly oiled or preferably lined with baking parchment.
Re-knead the dough and roll out again to use the dough up, if necessary.
Place on the middle shelf of a preheated oven 180c (160c for fan oven) for approximately 15-20 mins until lightly golden in colour. Cooking time depends on how thick you have made your treats.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool on the tray or place on a wire rack.
When completely cold transfer into airtight containers.
Use within 2 weeks or freeze for approx. one month
