3-Ingredient Sweet Potato Dog Cookies: Healthy & Easy

Let’s be real—sometimes, less is more. That’s exactly the vibe with these 3-ingredient sweet potato dog cookies.

They’re quick, easy, and loaded with wholesome goodness your pup will love. Sweet potatoes, oats, and an egg—that’s all you need to make your furry friend’s day.

• 1 cup mashed sweet potato (cooked and cooled—don’t serve it hot unless you want to learn how to ice a dog’s tongue).
• 1 cup rolled oats 
• 1 egg 

• Cook the Sweet Potato:
  Start by cooking your sweet potato. Boil it, bake it, microwave it—doesn’t matter as long as it’s soft. Let it cool before mashing. (Pro tip: The mash should be smooth, not chunky. Your dog’s not a fan of surprises in their cookies.)
• Preheat the Oven:
  Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly. Save yourself the cleanup headache.
• Mix It All Together:
  In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, rolled oats, and egg. Stir until it forms a sticky dough. If it’s too wet, add a sprinkle of oats. Too dry? Splash in a little water. You’re in control here.
• Shape the Cookies:
  Scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Flatten them into cookie shapes with your hand or the back of a spoon. No cookie cutter? No problem—your dog won’t care.
• Bake to Perfection:
  Pop the cookies in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re firm and slightly golden. Let them cool completely before serving. Seriously, don’t rush this—no one likes a burned tongue, especially your dog.

Storing Your Sweet Potato Dog Cookies

Don’t worry if you made too many (though your dog might disagree). Here’s how to keep them fresh:

• Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
• Refrigerator: Keep them in the fridge for up to two weeks.
• Freezer: Freeze for up to three months. Thaw before serving, unless your dog’s into icy snacks.
