I was baking some all natural dog friendly brownies for sale at a adoption event for Fur to Feather Rescue. Well, I of course had my taste testers approve them first. The brownies passed with flying colors. Gretchen and Pearl wanted more of them. I tried to explain that the rest of the brownies were for sale to raise money but I would bake some more on Sunday for them and their friends. Gave the all gone hand wave but Gretchen wasn't buying it. She could smell them up on the counter. I had to put them out in the car way before I was leaving just to get them away from that nose of Gretchen's.
The recipe came from my cook book "Cooking the Three Dog Bakery Way". They are real simple to make so I am including the recipe.
Belly Rub Brownies
1 1/4 C flour
3 Tbs carob powder
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 C canola oil
3/4 C honey
***** cocoa powder is not good for dogs for it is chocolate *****
Add all dry ingredients together in a med bowl set aside. In a small bowl whisk together the oil & honey. Add eggs one at a time, whisking to incorporate. Add the wet to the dry and stir until well blended. Pour into a greased 9x9x9 or 8x8x8x pan. Put into a med oven at 350. Bake until the brownies pull away from the sides of the pan around 20-25 min. Cool and cut into appropriate size bars for your dog (s). If they last long enough you can store up to 4 days or freeze up to 2 months. Enjoy.
They sold all brownies that we donationed. I was asked to make a basket of homemade natural cookies and bars for a raffle this Sunday for the same group to raise funds. Of course there will be extra baking for my two to have some to eat also.
Add on ******Carob powder can be found in your local health food store.******
