Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 70 1-inch crackers

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons oil (I have used coconut or olive oil)
  • 1 cup flour (Use whatever flour your cat can have - I used oat) plus additional flour for rolling dough
  • 2 tablespoons brewer's yeast optional
  • 1 tablespoon dried catnip optional
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese or finely shredded carrot
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons cold water

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In medium bowl add oil; mix in flour and brewer’s yeast until mixture looks sandy.
  • Stir in catnip and cheddar cheese (or carrots).
  • Mix in egg and add water a tablespoon at a time until the mixture forms dough.
  • Sprinkle flat surface with a little additional flour and roll dough to ¼ inch thickness. (If dough is too soft to work with - wrap and refrigerate for an hour.)
  • Use pizza wheel to cut dough into 1-inch squares.
  • Arrange squares on prepared baking sheet and prick with a fork.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes or until starting to brown.
  • Cool on baking sheet.

      You could certainly try it Margaret – if they’re more wet than the shredded carrots, you may need to adjust the texture of the dry ingredients more.
