Description
Simple recipe for making homemade, healthy gummy treats for your dog using bone broth, pumpkin, and carrot.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Beef or Chicken Bone Broth
- 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree (plain, unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup Carrot Puree
- 4 tablespoons Unflavored Gelatin Powder
Instructions
- Pour 1/2 cup of the bone broth into a small saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin powder over the broth and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Heat the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Do not boil the mixture.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Whisk in the remaining 1 1/2 cups of bone broth, pumpkin puree, and carrot puree until fully combined and smooth.
- Pour the mixture into silicone molds shaped like small bones or into a shallow, parchment-lined baking dish.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
- Once set, cut the mixture into individual bone shapes if using a dish, or pop them out of the molds.
- Store the gummy bones in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- Always use plain, unsweetened pumpkin puree; avoid pie filling.
- If you do not have carrot puree, you can substitute with an additional 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree.
- Check with your veterinarian before introducing new foods to your dog’s diet.
