Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons.
  • Rolling Pin
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Cookie cutter (dog bone shape optional)
  • Knife or pizza cutter
  • Cooling rack

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 slices cooked bacon finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the biscuits do not stick.

Step 2: Cook and Prepare the Bacon

  • Cook the bacon until crispy. Once cooled, chop it into very small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the easier they will mix into the dough.

Step 3: Mix the Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour and rolled oats. Stir them together so they are evenly distributed.

Step 4: Add the Wet Ingredients

  • Add the egg, chicken broth, shredded cheese, chopped bacon, and olive oil to the bowl. Stir until the mixture begins to form a dough.

Step 5: Knead the Dough

  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently for about 2–3 minutes until it becomes smooth and firm.
  • If the dough feels too dry, add a tablespoon of chicken broth. If it feels sticky, sprinkle a little more flour.

Step 6: Roll Out the Dough

  • Use a rolling pin to roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
  • This thickness helps create biscuits that are crunchy but still easy for dogs to chew.

Step 7: Cut the Biscuits

  • Use a cookie cutter to cut the dough into shapes. Classic dog bone shapes are fun, but circles or squares work perfectly too.
  • Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8: Bake the Biscuits

  • Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the biscuits turn golden brown and slightly firm.
  • Your kitchen will start smelling like bacon and cheese at this point, and your dog will definitely notice.

Step 9: Cool Completely

  • Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool completely on a rack before serving.
  • Cooling helps them firm up into crunchy treats.
