Green Bean and Pear Mini Treats

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh green beans, trimmed and chopped
• 1 ripe pear, peeled and diced
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (check for allergy)
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Step-by-step instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the treats will bake evenly and helps maintain their texture, which is important for making them appealing to your dog.
2. In a medium pot, bring water to a boil and add the chopped green beans. Boil for about 5 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the boiled green beans, diced pear, whole wheat flour, beaten egg, and coconut oil. Mix until you have a dough-like consistency.
4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Using a small cookie cutter, cut out mini shapes.
5. Place the cut-outs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and allows for easy cleanup after baking.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are lightly golden. Baking helps preserve the nutrients in the ingredients while making them palatable for your dog.
7. Once baked, let the treats cool completely before serving. This prevents burns and ensures they are safe for your dog to eat.
