Guest Greytluv Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 All my dogs are on grain free. I've been making cookies using wheat flour. Is there some other kind of flour I can use that will be better for them? Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vers Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Spelt flour or rice flour -- easy ingredients to find generally. Sorry I don't have recipes right at hand, but I think the recipes are also both easy to find and can be improved on after a couple batches.

Guest Greytluv Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 rice flour White or brown rice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trudy Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 either - white will be easier to find. Can basically do a 1 to 1 replacement. If you want to keep with the grain free, you should be able to find potato flour - maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JarBear Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I replace the wheat flour with Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Flour and xanthan gum in the quantity listed on the flour bag. It made great rolled and cut into shapes peanut butter cookies last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chucko Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 (edited) I made some treats, recipe attached. I would guess the oat flour could be substituted with another cup of the brown rice flour. They turned out pretty good. Yep, I tried them too. Oh, I used uncured bacon that had no nitrates, and a regular egg. Every dog that tried them so far loves them. The book called for organic everything, but I couldn't afford it when I was shopping for ingredients, I used Bob's Red Mill flour (Gluten Free).Grilled Cheese with Bacon.doc Edited December 24, 2010 by Chucko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
