🐾 Ingredients:

  • 2 ¾ cups wheat pastry flour

  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk

  • ½ cup coconut oil, melted

  • 4 cups apples, cored, peeled, and sliced

  • ⅓ cup water

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, melted coconut oil, and flour to form your pie crust dough.

3. Roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thickness and cut to fit into a muffin tin or small pie tins.

4. Press the dough into the sides to form a small bowl shape.

5. In a saucepan, cook the apples with 2 tablespoons of the water over low heat until soft.

6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining water with cornstarch and cinnamon.

7. Add the cinnamon mixture to the apples and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring gently until thickened.

8. Let the apple filling cool completely.

9. Spoon the mixture into the pie shells. Leave them open-faced or top with leftover dough for a lattice look.

10. Bake for 25–35 minutes or until golden brown.

11. Allow to cool, then serve fresh or stuff into a KONG or SodaPup toy. You can also freeze them for a longer-lasting treat!

 

🐶 Why These Ingredients Are Great for Dogs:

 

 

  • Apples – Rich in fiber and vitamin C, apples support digestion and immune health (just be sure to remove the seeds and core).

  • Coconut Oil – A healthy fat that may support skin and coat health and aid digestion.

  • Unsweetened Coconut Milk – Lactose-free and gentle on tummies, with natural healthy fats.

  • Wheat Pastry Flour – Softer and lower in protein than regular flour, making it gentler for homemade treats.

  • Cinnamon – A safe spice for dogs in small amounts; it can offer anti-inflammatory benefits.

  • Cornstarch – Used to safely thicken the filling without harmful additives.
