Scale
CAROB COOKIES
- 1 cup (117 grams) whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup (33 grams) cornmeal
- 3 tablespoons (24 grams) carob powder
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) water (add more water if needed)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetable oil
- 1 large egg (50 grams)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons (27 grams) peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon (5 grams) honey
GLAZE
- 1/2 cup (73 grams) cornstarch
- 1/2 cup (132 grams) low fat plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon (8 grams) pure honey
Instructions
- CAROB COOKIES: Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius) and line 2 cookie cookie trays with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal and carob together; set aside.
- In a medium bowl mix water, oil, egg, peanut butter, and honey. Combine and mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture to form a ball of dough.
- Over a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/4 inch (6 millimeters) thick and cut out shapes with desired cookie cutters.
- Bake for 15 minutes and allow to cool in the oven for approximately 10 minutes until the cookies have hardened.
- GLAZE: In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch, yogurt and honey until smooth. Using an angled spatula spread a thin layer of glaze over each cookie or use a piping (pastry) bag fitted with a small round tip to pipe glaze over the top of each cookie. Over the surface of a counter, gently shake the cookie side to side to set the glaze evenly. Keep glazed cookies in the fridge to dry for 4 hours or overnight. Best served chilled.
Notes
- Cookies should be stored in the fridge in an airtight container.
- Shelf life is approximately 1 to 2 weeks. After a few days, the glaze on top of the cookies may begin to “crack.” The cookies are still good.
- For large breed dogs, use larger cookie cutter shapes. For small breed dogs or for dogs in training, use smaller shaped cookie cutters.
