If you want to make something healthy and tasty for your horse, then this Horse Treats Recipe is perfect. These treats are safe, simple, and made with natural ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 large grated carrot
- 1 medium grated apple
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 –3 tablespoons water if needed
Instructions
Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line your baking tray with parchment paper.
Grate the apple
- Wash and grate the apple. Remove the seeds because horses should not eat them.
Grate the carrot
- Peel and grate the carrot. This helps the ingredients mix well.
Mix oats and flour
- Put rolled oats and whole wheat flour in a bowl. Mix them well.
Add apple and carrot
- Add the grated apple and grated carrot into the bowl. Mix gently.
Add honey
- Pour in the honey. It adds sweetness and helps the dough come together.
Add water slowly
- Add water one spoon at a time. Mix until the dough becomes soft and easy to shape.
Shape small balls
- Use your hands to make small dough balls. Make sure they are firm.
Place on tray
- Put the dough balls on the baking tray. Leave some space between each one.
Bake the treats
- Bake for 18–20 minutes. Remove them when they look slightly golden and firm.
Cool completely
- Let the treats cool fully before giving them to your horse.
Notes
- Use applesauce instead of grated apple if you want smoother dough.
- Add a little cinnamon for a nice smell.
- Never add sugar, salt, or chocolate. These are unsafe for horses.
- Use small cookie cutters for cute shapes.
- Add shredded beet pulp for extra fiber.
