THREE INGREDIENT SALMON TREATS 🐟

This recipe for homemade Cat Treats only contains three ingredients, so they’re pretty simple to make and the best part is, you know exactly what’s in them: salmon, egg, and flour. Your pawed pal is sure to go crazy for them!

INGREDIENTS

  • 280gm canned salmon - undrained. You could even try any kind of oily fish: tuna, mackerel, or even canned shrimp!

  • 1 egg beaten

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.

  2. Pulse 10 ounces of undrained, canned salmon in a food processor to chop as finely as possible.

  3. In a stand mixer, combine salmon, 1 egg (beaten), and 2 cups whole wheat flour until dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add up to 1/3 cup water. If it's is too wet or sticky, add a bit more flour. The dough should be tacky but not sticky.

  4. Roll dough on a floured surface until about 1/4-inch thick. Use a 3/4-inch cookie cutter in the shape of your choice to create your treats.

  5. Place treats on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes. When they’re slightly browned and look crunchy, they’re done.

  6. Allow to cool before serving + store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
