Brenda’s Homemade Bunny Biscuits

This biscuit recipe is courtesy of a great website we often frequent for information.

Remember, these are treats, so give them sparingly.

• 1 small carrot, pureed
• 1/2 banana, mashed until really creamy
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1/4 cup rabbit pellets, ground finely in a coffee grinder
• 1/4 cup whole wheat flour

Mix pureed carrot, banana, and honey in a medium bowl. Add pellet powder and whole wheat flour. Mix until blended. Knead in your hands for 1-2 minutes. Roll out the “dough” in 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick layers between sheets of plastic wrap. Cut into small cookies (about 3/4 inch across). Place cut shapes onto a parchment paper-covered cookie sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for about 30 minutes (check to make sure they are not browning too much). Turn off the heat and let the cookies sit in the warm oven for an hour or so.

Brenda adds: Next time, I am going to try finely ground-rolled oats in place of the flour. I am sure that lots of other changes could be made, and these would still work. For example, you could replace the carrot with apple or pear.
