HORSE TREATS
Treat Idea One:
INGREDIENTS:
1 ½ cup
all purpose flour
1 cup
bran
1 cup
molasses
1 cup
grated carrot or apple
PREPARATION:
Preheat
oven to
Oil two
cookie sheets
Put aside a small bowl of white sugar
and a drinking glass with a flat bottom.
In a large bowl mix all the ingredients
thoroughly. The mixture shouldn’t be too wet, and should stick together. Add more flour to make the mixture firmer and
hold together if necessary. Drop by teaspoonfuls, about 1 ½ inches apart on a
greased cookie sheet. Grease the bottom of the glass, dip it in the sugar, and
stamp the cookies to flatten them slightly. Bake for about 10 minutes. This
makes about 25 cookies, depending on the size. Store in an air-tight container
or bag. Your horse will love the sweet crunchiness of these cookies. They keep
well in an air-tight container. Never feed too many treats too often.

2 carrots, shredded
1 apple, shredded
1/3 cup molasses

Preheat over to 400 degrees. Generously grease a muffin tin. Mix carrots and apples
into a bowl with molasses, bran, brown sugar, water, flour and oatmeal. Mixture

well blended. The mix should be sticky, but not too runny. If it is too
runny, add flour, if it is to thick, add a little more molasses and oil. Cook

you are done, let cool in fridge.
