Grain Free Dog Cookie Recipe

For those of you who are interested, here's one of the recipes that I use to make natural, grain free treats for my chihuahuas. This recipe is my own and came about because my youngest Chi is allergic to rice an wheat.

1lb Ground Beef (or any other meat of your choice)
1 cup of peanut butter
3 jars of baby food veggies or fruit
Powdered milk as needed to thicken

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a cookie sheet

I brown the ground beef first. Then add the other ingredients. For this batch I used one jar of strained peas, one jar of pear and one jar of carrot baby food. There's no real science to the powdered milk - you just want a thick cookie dough consistency an I use the powdered milk to thicken. For those of you who don't mind grains you could also use cooked rice or cooked oats instead

Place on a cookie sheet using a small spoon. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes. You want a well done cookie

At this point, you can put them in a container and let your babies enjoy. They will keep for 10-14 days. If you'd like for them to last longer you can freeze them or you can put them in a food dehydrator. I dehydrate mine until they are extra crispy. They keep for months after this.


Feel free to play around with this recipe. With the amount of meat and peanut butter you can hide most any fruit or veggie and they won't even taste it
