Zuki Enjoys Homemade Cheesy Treats!

Since this thing called Lockdown where our humans is staying at home all the time apart from our walkies, Hum has been doing lots of baking.

Well, the other day she finally stopped baking human cakes and biscuits and instead baked some Dog Treats for me!!!!! 😊

If your Humans want to treat you to these very tasty Dog Biscuits, here is the recipe:

Cheesy Dog Biscuit Recipe

Preparation Time: 15 minutes; Cooking Time: 20 mins

Difficulty:   (Super) Easy

Ingredients:

  • 115ml of hot water
  • 1 chicken or beef stock cube/pot
  • 1 egg
  • 200 grams of wholemeal flour (any standard flour will do but we prefer wholemeal!)
  • 40 grams of grated cheddar cheese

Method:

#1 Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius

Pop your oven to 180 degrees Celcius so that it’s ready to bake when you are.

#2  Make your stock

Make your stock with the stock pot and bowling water and pour 115 ml into the bowl.

#3  Mix your flour, egg and stock together

With a wooden spoon, mix together your flour, egg and stock mixture to make a dough.

 #4 Add in that cheese

Grate your cheese as finely as possible and then add it to the mixture.

Mix through again adding more water or flour if you feel the consistency isn’t quite right to

roll out a dough.

#5 Knead your dough and roll out

Gently flour a surface and knead your dough gently read to roll out.

Using a rolling pin, you want to create an even thickness of around 1/4 inch. The thinner they are, the quicker they will cook and vice-versa.

#6  Get creative with those dog biscuit shapes

You are now ready to cut out your favourite shapes. From circles to love hearts. Bones to doggy shapes, the world is your oyster here!

Remember to roll together any dough scraps and roll them back out again to create even more cheesy dog biscuits. You’ll be surprised how many you can get out of this small batch.

#7  Place on baking paper or a non-stick cooking sheet

Once you’ve cut out your shapes, pop them onto a baking tray.

These won’t reduce much in size, so do leave a little space between them to bake.

#8  Ready, Steady…. Bake!

It’s time to pop in the oven.  I ended up with two trays and found that around 20 mins was enough to make them crisp enough to form biscuits.

I’d set the alarm for 15 minutes to check in on them (but no need to turn them over during cooking).

#9  Leave to cool before treat time 

They really won’t take long to cool down and then it’s treat time!

These really are YUMMY!!!! So please show this to your humans and enjoy!!!!!
