Description

The most lovable four-legged friend in your life deserves a Valentine’s Day treat too!


Ingredients

Scale

For the beet hearts:

  • 1 small beet, peeled and boiled
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 ½ cups oat flour, more as needed

For the banana hearts:

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 ½ cups oat flour, more as needed

For the apple beet hearts:

  • ½ small beet, peeled and boiled
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 ½ cups oat flour, more as needed

Instructions

  1. Combine the fruit/root and water in a food processor until smooth.
  2. Add 1 ½ cups oat flour, and pulse until combined. Add more flour as needed, until a dough forms. The mixture will resemble pie dough or play dough.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth. Use a rolling pin to roll to approximately ¼-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut into hearts or your shape of choice.  Transfer the shaped cookies to a baking sheet with a Silpat mat or parchment paper. Spread the cookies in an even layer.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the cookies until firm, about 30-40 minutes. Set aside to cool, then transfer to an airtight container, then reward the good boys and girls in your household.
