Turkey Hobnobs

With all the talk this week about the safety of pet treats and the fact that I can no longer get the pet bakery chicken bones I decided to have a go at making my own treats for Josh. I made these today and have to say that I almost fell over JOsh every time I went to check on them in theoven and he has had 3 even before they had cooled down lol!!

TURKEY HOBNOBS

500 g minced/ground turkey
60g diced unsalted Butter
2 teacups plain flour
1 teacup oats
1 egg

• Rub in the butter and sieved flour.
  Add the Oats and stir well
  Add the ground turkey and mix well with your hands to work the turkey through the mixture.
  bind with a beaten egg
  Knead and then roll out on a floured board to about 0.5cm thick then cut into shapes.
  Bake on a lined baking tray at between 160 and 180 degrees C for about an hour until they are golden brown and hard.

Lesley - they sound delicious! I will have to give these a go !

Oooh now these sound fab, (Alfie was also a fan of the pet bakery chicken bones.....where have they gone??) We will give this recipe a try Lesley, thanks for sharing.

I never think of making stuff like this for mine but you know it looks simple enough I might just be tempted.

Don't suppose you have the measurements in good ole lbs and oz's do you? As cups I have no idea, do we use any ole cup out of cupboard or is a cup a certain measure?

Sounds great....dont think they will last long in my house once made but what the hell i'll give it a go

Yummy Phoebe's mouth is now watering.

a good old fashioned tea cup lol!! Suppose you couls use a mug and half a mug instead of 2 teacups and 1 teacup!! As for the other stuff - I bought a 500g pack of mince turkey and cut about a third of a pack of butter - I NEVER measure anything!! Put the approx weights down for you lot

Oooooooooooo Miss you could make loads and then put in the for sale sec

Now thats a great idea Miss I'll take 3 bags please Lesley

Yes thats a good idea - hang on a minute I'll make them in between classes LOL!

Well i would like 10 bags pleasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssse.......you really are the best

now now fluff don`t be greedy we all want some

I asked first so you lot all get in to line

mmmmmmmmmmmm can i have some too, choo would just love these!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Lesleys not going to have any spare time now

I haven't got any anyway least not since starting STW!!!!

BTW I may be persuaded to take Christmas orders (possibly for a few hundred pounds lol)

Wow that's a lotta of biscuits Miss

ooh just found these.. yum.. making them tonight defo!

I've made these biscuits twice now for my lot, and they absolutely ADORE them. They don't like them too crispy - rather softish in the middle, and they enjoy them even better when they're just out of the oven!

I'm going to make up batches of these for christmas pressies for all my furry friends this year!

They are very popular with Josh - so popular that he goes off his other food

My friend has been making chicken scones for him so I will try to get the recipe for those too

Meant to add that I did them last time without the egg and they worked out well too (couldn't remember my own recipe ) if anyone has an egg-sensitive pooch!

made them last night!! went down very well (with cats as well).. as good as the liver cake and way less disgusting to make!

thanks lesley!

You're welcome! Of course I have regretted making them because Josh has become a finicky eater as a result

me and my 6 year old stepson are going to have a go and make some for the dogs christmas stokings, how long do they keep for once made?
