Anyone can bake treats for their own dogs, but it’s a fact that very few dog owners do! There’s quite a bit of care and attention required and nowadays people just don’t have the time. This is how Chef Katie makes her Chunky Biscuit Bones.
The first task is to prepare the dough. Pure olive oil is used instead of heavy saturated fats, carefully combined with flour and free-range egg to give a light, workable mixture. The dough is set aside to rest while the other ingredients are prepared.
Meat, fish, vegetables, cheese and herbs are finely chopped or blended as required. Other ingredients such as treacle, ginger or peanut butter are mixed straight into the rested dough.
When all of the flavoursome ingredients have been thoroughly mixed in to make sure there is an even distribution, the dough is kneaded well before being rolled out. Then the cutting begins. Every single biscuit bone is cut out individually and weighed before being placed on a baking tray. At this stage, plenty of flour is used to prevent sticking – to hands, cutters, scales – you name it!
The baking is timed to perfection, with the trays being turned regularly. When ready, the little biscuit bones are cooled before going out into the world….
The Chunky Biscuit Bones are available in 22 varieties. Made especially for your four-legged friends.
