Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15-20 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes | Makes: 18 cookies
Fresh blueberry oatmeal cookies topped with blueberries and oats, served on a white plate. A wholesome, homemade treat featuring oats and ripe blueberries, perfect for snack or dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (antioxidant powerhouse for immune support)
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats (sustained energy and digestive fiber)
- 1 ripe banana, mashed (natural sweetness and potassium)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour (healthy fats for shiny coat)
- 1 egg (binding protein, completely safe for dogs)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper – prevents sticking and makes cleanup effortless.
- In a bowl, mash blueberries with a fork until broken down but still chunky – this creates flavor bursts throughout each cookie.
- Add oats, mashed banana, coconut flour, and egg, mixing until well combined – mixture should be thick but spreadable with beautiful purple specks.
- Scoop spoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet, flattening slightly – they won’t spread much so shape them how you want the final cookies to look.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until cookies are firm but still have slight give – they should smell absolutely amazing and drive your pup crazy.
- Allow to cool completely before serving – cooling allows flavors to develop and prevents burns on sensitive mouths.
Notes:
- Always let cool completely before serving for safety and best flavor
- These contain natural fruit sugars, so serve in moderation as special treats
- Amber prefers these slightly chewy, but they can be baked longer for crispier texture
Storage Tips:
- Store in airtight container in refrigerator for up to 1 week
- Fresh fruit content requires refrigeration to prevent spoilage
- Can freeze for up to 1 month – perfect for making large batches of healthy treats
