Venison and Blueberry Cookies


Description

Gourmet antioxidant cookies that taste like dessert for dogs – novel protein with brain-boosting berries in elegant treats

Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cook Time: 25 minutes | Total Time: 45 minutes | Makes: 20-25 cookies

Venison and Blueberry Cookies


Ingredients

Scale

  • 8 oz cooked venison, finely chopped (lean novel protein perfect for sensitive stomachs)
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries, mashed (packed with brain-boosting antioxidants)
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour (naturally grain-free and gentle on digestion)
  • 1 fresh egg (for perfect gourmet binding)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil (healthy fats for coat shine and amazing aroma)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper—essential for fancy cookies.
  2. Combine chopped venison with mashed blueberries, letting fruit juices coat the meat beautifully.
  3. Add coconut flour gradually, then egg and coconut oil until purple-speckled dough forms.
  4. Roll out on floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness (if your pup can wait that long).
  5. Cut into elegant shapes using cookie cutters—the purple color looks stunning in any shape.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until firm and lightly browned around edges.
  7. Cool completely before serving—blueberries retain heat longer than regular cookies!

Notes:

  • Always let cool completely to avoid burning eager mouths and for best flavor development
  • Amber prefers these crispy outside with slight chewiness from the fruit
  • If dough is too wet, add coconut flour gradually; too dry, add more mashed berries

Storage Tips:

  • Store in airtight containers at room temperature for up to 1 week
  • Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks, especially in warm weather
  • They actually develop better flavor after sitting overnight

What Makes This Recipe Special:

These cookies combine lean venison (perfect for dogs with protein sensitivities) with blueberries’ powerful antioxidants, creating gourmet treats that support brain health and immune function. Unlike commercial cookies with artificial berry flavoring, every purple speckle comes from real fruit while delivering premium protein nutrition that satisfies dogs’ wild instincts.
