Description
Simple recipe for making chewy, grain-free bone broth treats for your dog.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups beef or chicken bone broth (unseasoned)
- 4 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for coating)
Instructions
- Pour 1/2 cup of the bone broth into a small saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin powder over the top and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- Gently heat the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Do not boil.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the remaining 1 1/2 cups of cold bone broth.
- Pour the mixture into silicone molds shaped like bones or small squares.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 to 4 hours, or until completely firm.
- If using coconut oil, lightly grease the molds before pouring the liquid for easier removal.
- Carefully remove the gummies from the molds.
- If desired, lightly coat the finished gummies with a very thin layer of melted coconut oil for a slightly firmer exterior.
- Store the gummy bones in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- Always use bone broth made without salt, onions, garlic, or other ingredients toxic to dogs.
- Adjust the gelatin amount slightly if you prefer a firmer or softer texture.
- You can use silicone ice cube trays if bone-shaped molds are unavailable.
