Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cook Time: 15-20 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes | Makes: 35 bite-sized treats
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz lean ground lamb (fresh from butcher for best quality and digestibility)
- 1 small sweet potato, cooked and mashed (smooth consistency for even distribution)
- 1/4 cup oat flour (gluten-free binding perfect for sensitive stomachs)
- 1 egg (natural binding for perfect training texture)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (healthy fats and irresistible training appeal)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper—essential for premium treat cleanup!
- Cook sweet potato until very soft, then mash completely smooth—lumpy sweet potato creates inconsistent training treats.
- Mix lean ground lamb, mashed sweet potato, oat flour, and egg until evenly combined and mixture holds together when squeezed.
- Roll into marble-sized balls for perfect training portions, then place on prepared baking sheet.
- Flatten each ball slightly with fork for optimal training treat shape that’s easy to grab quickly.
- Brush tops with coconut oil for extra richness and premium appeal during challenging training scenarios.
- Bake 15-20 minutes until cooked through and lightly golden—start checking at 15 minutes for perfect training texture.
- Cool completely before using in training sessions (patience creates perfect training tool quality).
Notes:
- Always use lean ground lamb to avoid too much richness during training sessions
- Amber responds best when these are small enough to eat in one quick bite during training
- Fresh, quality lamb makes these extremely high-value for even stubborn dogs
Storage Tips:
- Store in refrigerator in airtight container for up to one week
- Freeze individual portions for up to 3 months—perfect for ongoing premium training programs
- Keep in small, portable containers for easy transport to training classes
