Spring has sprung – which means Easter (and a week of chocolate for us humans) is just around the corner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As chocolate is a big no-no for our dogs <\/strong>– it\u2019s toxic<\/a> – we\u2019ve come up with the perfect recipe to try instead. These Carob Kisses might look and taste like chocolate – but they\u2019re actually made with carob powder<\/strong>, a cocoa alternative that\u2019s 100% dog-friendly<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This super-simple recipe is one both you and your dog can enjoy together, and we think they look pretty cute as a change to truffles this Easter. Just mix together carob powder and peanut butter with some oats and you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Servings<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

8 – 10 truffles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you\u2019ll need<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

60g xylitol-free peanut butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

25g carob powder, plus some for dusting<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2tbsp rolled oats, or oat flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
  1. Using a food processor, blend the oats until finely ground<\/li>
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, carob powder and the oats until combined<\/li>
  3. Mould the mixture into small balls<\/li>
  4. Roll each ball in the remaining carob powder until lightly coated<\/li>
  5. They can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, or frozen for up to 6 months. (As if they\u2019ll last that long).<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
