Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 180°C / 350°F and line a baking tray.

  2. 2

    Mix the oat flour, pumpkin and egg into a stiff dough, adding water a splash at a time if it is too dry.

  3. 3

    Roll to about 5mm thick and cut into small shapes.

  4. 4

    Bake for 25–30 minutes until firm and lightly golden.

Serving guidance

One or two small biscuits a day for most dogs, within their treat allowance.

Safety notes

  • Use plain pumpkin, never spiced pie filling.
  • Size the biscuits to your dog and supervise the first few.
  • Contains oats and egg — skip if your dog reacts to either.
