Cheeseburger Dog Biscuits Recipe

Introduction

These Cheeseburger Dog Biscuits make a tasty and wholesome treat for your furry friend. Packed with oats, cornmeal, and cheddar cheese, they’re easy to make at home and sure to be a hit with your dog.

Ingredients

• 1 cup quick oats
• 1 cup yellow or white corn meal
• 1 cube beef stock (preferably real meat), crumbled
• 1/2 cup very warm water
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2–1 cup water (additional as needed)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Prepare additional pans if you plan to cut the biscuits smaller or need more space.
2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the quick oats, cornmeal, and crumbled beef stock cube. Stir in the very warm water and let the mixture sit for 10–15 minutes to soften the oats. The water doesn’t need to be fully absorbed, but the oats should be soft.
3. Step 3: Add the whole wheat flour and shredded cheddar cheese to the oat mixture. Gradually add additional water, just enough to create a dough firm enough to roll out without sticking.
4. Step 4: Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a dog bone biscuit cutter or another shape to cut out the biscuits. This recipe yields roughly 30 medium-sized biscuits.
5. Step 5: Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30–35 minutes. Once the time is up, turn off the oven and leave the biscuits inside until the oven has completely cooled. This step helps to dehydrate the treats for longer storage.

Tips & Variations

• Substitute chicken or vegetable stock cube for a different flavor that suits your dog.
• If you don’t have a dog bone cutter, use a small cookie cutter or simply cut the dough into squares or strips.
• To make the biscuits extra crunchy, you can leave them in a low oven (around 200°F) for an additional 1–2 hours after baking.

Storage

Store the cooled biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. For longer storage, freeze them in a sealed bag for up to three months. To refresh, thaw frozen biscuits overnight and serve at room temperature. No reheating is necessary.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use regular oats instead of quick oats?

Quick oats soften more easily, making them ideal for this recipe. If using regular oats, consider soaking them longer or lightly grinding them before adding.

Are these biscuits suitable for all dog sizes?

Yes, but adjust the biscuit size and portion based on your dog’s size and dietary needs to avoid overfeeding.

• Method: Baking
• Cuisine: Pet Food

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Dry Ingredients

• 1 cup quick oats
• 1 cup yellow or white corn meal
• 1 cube beef stock, crumbled (preferably real meat-based)
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Wet Ingredients

• 1/2 cup very warm water
• 1/2 to 1 cup additional water, as needed

Instructions

1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Depending on the biscuit cutter size, you may need more than one baking sheet.
2. Soften the Oats: In a large bowl, combine the quick oats, cornmeal, and crumbled beef stock cube. Add 1/2 cup of very warm water and stir well. Let this mixture sit for 10 to 15 minutes so that the oats soften. The water does not have to be fully absorbed, but the oats should be soft to the touch.
3. Mix Dough: Stir in the whole wheat flour and shredded cheddar cheese into the oat mixture. Gradually add additional water, between 1/2 to 1 cup, a little at a time, until the mixture forms a rollable dough. The dough should not be too wet or sticky but firm enough to roll out.
4. Roll and Cut: Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to approximately 1/4-inch thickness. Using a medium dog bone-shaped biscuit cutter (about 3 inches long), cut out the biscuits. This recipe yields about 30 biscuits.
5. Bake: Arrange the cut biscuits on the prepared baking sheets. Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes.
6. Dehydrate for Storage: After baking, turn off the oven but leave the biscuits inside. Let them sit in the oven until it has completely cooled. This step dehydrates the biscuits, giving them a crunchy texture and improving their shelf life for storage.

Notes

• Beef stock cube should ideally be real meat-based for best flavor and nutrition.
• You can adjust the water amount to get the perfect dough consistency; add more or less as needed.
• Dehydrating the biscuits after baking helps them stay fresh longer and makes them crunchier.
• Store the biscuits in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
• If you don’t have a dog bone cutter, you can cut into small squares or other shapes.
