Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the oat flour and apple sauce in a food processor and blend.
  • Remove half of the mixture and set aside. If it feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until you achieve a firm but pliable consistency.
  • Add the cranberries and blitz until smooth. If the dough feels too wet, add more oat flour.
  • Take small pieces of each dough and roll them into thin ropes, about 4–5 inches long.
  • Gently twist one plain rope with one cranberry-colored rope to create a striped effect.
  • Curve one end to form a candy cane shape and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 15–20 minutes, or until they are firm and lightly golden.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.
