I’m learning all about grain-free recipes this month. And I’m also realizing that Oscar is acquiring a taste for them! If your dog can’t digest grains, there’s no reason why he can’t enjoy a tasty, homemade biscuit. This time around, I’m pleased to present my Chickpea Grain-Free Dog Treat Recipe. This type of flour is full of flavor, dietary fiber and protein. Because it’s a bean, it’s not considered a grain – which is good news for dogs who can’t digest gluten. And this recipe has the extra benefit of banana, peanut butter and flax seed meal.

Ingredients:
2 cups chickpea flour
1 banana
3 tablespoons peanut butter
1 large egg
1 1/2 tablespoons flax meal
Directions:
This was my first time working with chickpea flour. I found the dough tough to work with and the smell was a bit strange at first – it had a bit of a savory scent. But Oscar liked them and that’s always my indicator of a job well done!
