Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 medium apple, chopped
- 1 medium carrot, grated
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (xylitol-free)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of whole wheat flour, and set aside.
- Grate one medium-sized carrot and chop one medium apple into small pieces, then add them to the flour mixture.
- In another bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 1/4 cup of peanut butter, and 1 tablespoon of honey (if using). Then, mix this into the dry ingredients until combined.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it gently until it forms a cohesive ball. If it’s too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour as needed.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to create fun shapes or simply cut them into squares with a knife.
- Place the cut-out shapes onto the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crunchy.
- Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
