    Method & timing

    Let’s get these simple dog treats baked and ready for your hungry pup. The whole process takes about 30 minutes from start to finish.

    1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    2. Mix 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup fresh blueberries, 1 large egg, and 1/3 cup water in a bowl until a dough forms. Why it matters: Mixing just until combined keeps the final treat tender instead of tough.
    3. Roll the dough out to about 1/4 inch thickness on a lightly floured countertop.

    Let the treats cool completely on a wire rack before handing one to your furry friend. Store any leftover snacks in a sealed airtight container for up to one week.
