Description
Simple recipe for making soft, crunchy dog kibbles using turkey and pumpkin.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
- 1/2 cup cooked ground turkey, drained
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, pumpkin puree, ground turkey, and egg.
- Mix the ingredients until a stiff dough forms. Add water slowly, one tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too dry to come together.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness.
- Use a small cookie cutter or knife to cut the dough into small, bite-sized kibble shapes.
- Place the cut pieces onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are firm and lightly browned.
- Turn off the oven and leave the kibbles inside with the door slightly ajar for another 30 minutes to dry out and achieve a crunchier texture.
- Cool completely before storing.
Notes
- Store the finished kibbles in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- For a harder crunch, bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes.
