My dog (like many!) loves sweet potatoes. These easy to make treats are not only inexpensive, vegan, and free of any additives, they'll also help keep your dog's teeth and gums healthy.

Ingredients

  • 3 sweet potatoes

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
  2. Line baking sheet with parchment paper (preferably eco-friendly, from unbleached and recycled materials!).
  3. Slice potatoes along their width with a sharp knife so that you have long, slender pieces, 1/4" in thickness. The width and length you choose will depend on how large you want the treats to be (keep in mind they will shrink significantly during baking).
  4. Place sweet potato slices on baking sheet and set them in the oven. They do not have to be far apart from one another, as they will shrink during baking.
  5. Bake for 2 to 5 hours, checking every hour or so for consistency. For harder, crunchier, treats bake longer, for chewier treats, decrease baking time (don't be afraid to give them a bite to see what they're like!).
