Don’t forget the dog
These bacon-flavored dog treats will make Fido’s day, if Procoprio’s dog Marty McFly’s response is any indication. Local sources for most ingredients abound; Fields of Agape flour and cornmeal can be purchased at winter markets and Pogue’s Run Grocer.
Ingredients
- 3 cups whole-wheat flour
- ¾ cups cornmeal
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 egg
- 6–8 bacon strips
- 2–3 cloves garlic
- ½ cup cheese
- 1 can chicken
- 1 cup molasses
Preparation
Mix flour, cornmeal, milk and egg in a large bowl. Set aside. Fry bacon, then place it in a food processor with any grease left in the pan. Process, then mix remaining ingredients in the food processor. Add the contents of the food processor to the flour mixture and stir well. Roll the dough out on a floured surface. Cut into bone shapes or squares. Bake 15 minutes at 350°F. Let cool completely, then store in refrigerator. The treats will get crunchier in the refrigerator.
