Blog recipe: Festive no-bake cranberry & sweet potato dog treats

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 cup cranberries (dried and unsweetened) – we used a few fresh cranberries and some bits of apple as we had them!
• 1/2 cup sweet potato puree (cooked and mashed)
• 1 1/4 cups rolled oats (blended into oat flour) – we used gluten free oats for our allergy pups
• 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional, for added omega-3s)
• 1 tbsp unsweetened peanut butter

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Blend & Combine: Blend the oats into a fine flour and mix with the cranberries, sweet potato puree, chia seeds, and peanut butter in a large bowl. Stir until well combined.
2. Shape the Treats: Roll the mixture into small balls or press into festive cookie cutter shapes for added fun.
3. Chill: Place the treats in the refrigerator for at least an hour to firm up.
4. Serve & Celebrate: Once chilled, they’re ready to serve! Store the treats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

WHY THESE INGREDIENTS?

• Cranberries are bursting with antioxidants to support immune and urinary health.
• Sweet Potatoes are rich in fibre and vitamins for gut health and sustained energy.
• Oats are gentle on sensitive stomachs and provide slow-releasing carbohydrates to keep your pup fuelled for winter walks.
