Ingredients
1 x large carrot (plus extra to decorate)
2 x medium eggs
30mls olive or coconut oil
50-60mls water
150-170g gluten-free flour
Handful of fresh parsley (plus extra to decorate)
Optional - Manuka or local honey (to decorate)
Method
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees and line a small baking tray or brownie tin with grease-proof paper.
- Roughly chop carrot and parsley.
- Add carrot, parsley, eggs, oil, and water to the blender or smoothie maker.
- Pulse until smooth and pour into a mixing bowl.
- Slowly add 150-170g gluten-free flour - whisk well to incorporate air (the mixture should be 'gloopy').
- Pour the mixture into they tray or brownie tin.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes.
Decorate
- Once your bake is cooked, turn it upside down to dry and cool on a metal grille.
- Cut into squares and lightly glaze each with the honey.
- Place very finely chopped parsley on the outer squares to make a grassy lawn.
- Grind some of your dog’s favourite Arden Grange kibble in a pestle and mortar to make soil to cover the rest of the squares.
- Cut some small triangles of carrot to make “baby carrots” to insert into some of the soil-covered squares.
Top tips
- Treats should be fed in moderation.
- Honey is an optional extra in this recipe. The purpose of the honey is to stick the dirt or parsley down (although manuka honey especially has lots of health benefits).
- Don not use self-rising flour (due to the baking powder) as this is not healthy for our furry friends. While small quantities spilt over a large number of treats will not be sufficient to result in a health issue, we still do not recommend the use of plain flour.
