Dog biscuits

[GreenDragon]

I remember someone posting about using spent grains from beer making to bake dog biscuits. Can this person share the recipe? Just did an all grain batch so have tons of grains to use up.

Thanks!

I have not, but I found a recipe from a home brewers website for dog biscuits from spent grains. Other searches turned up similar recipes.

Just avoid hops for dogs. It nukes their kidneys.

Another point to ponder about spent brewers grains:. If your dogs have any problems with ear infections, the problem could be the left over yeast. I have two springers spaniels that suffer from that. The vet set me straight....

i use the grains prior to yeast addition. My dog is super sensitive and he loves these with no negative stomach results. To be honest im curious as to what you are brewing that you are adding yeast to the mash and not the wort.

4 cup grain
2 cup flour
2 eggs
peanut butter or bacon grease

i also often shred carrots in

As i baked these I realized I didn’t put any instructions here.

knead ingredients (use a kitchen mixer if possible)
Roll out on floured surface
Get out you chavata and practice cutting wrapper shapes (just kidding i use pizza cutter and just go random all over)
Oven sheet with parchment paper
Bake @350f for 20mins
Dry either in dehydrator or oven on low with door ajar
