Sunday Morning Pancakes

  • 2 cups Canine Life Pre-Mix  
  • 1 egg
  • 1 grated medium size apple
  • 1 mashed banana
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin - unsweetened
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Enough filtered water to make a smooth pancake batter.

Put the Canine Life Pre-Mix into a bowl. Add other ingredients and stir to make a smooth pancake batter.
Use a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick pan, and cook pancakes for your favourite dog!

Note: Leftover pancakes can be frozen for those busy Sunday mornings, or the recipe can easily be cut in half.

Holiday Cookies

  • 4 cups Canine Life Pre-Mix
  • 2 cups unsweetened applesauce OR canned unsweetened pumpkin OR a combination of both
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cranberry juice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Filtered water (if needed)

Baking Instructions

  • Prehead oven to 275F
  • Whirl all the ingredients together in a food processor or mixer. Mix until dought forms a large ball with the consistency of shortbread. Use a little more Pre-Mix if the dough is sticky OR use additional filtered water if dough seems crumbly.
  • Turn out dough and knead lightly.
  • Line one large or two medium cookie sheets with parchment paper for perfect non-stick cookies every time. Place dough in the centre and roll out thinly to about 1/4 inch thickness. With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, score through into bite size or larger size squares./
  • Bake for approximately 1 1/2 hours at 275F degrees. Cookies should feel HARD and THOROUGHLY DRY; if they are still moist, continue baking longer.
  • Turn off oven and let cookies cool until completely dry. Break on the score lines. Store in a cookie jar, bowl or basket. The dryer the cookies are, the longer they will last. Cookies that contain ANY moisture will go moldy quickly!

Note: Leftover pancakes can be frozen for those busy Sunday mornings, or recipe can easily be cut in half.
