Instructions

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

Mix dry ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and cornmeal.

3

Prepare wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, mix the bacon fat, beaten egg, and cold water until well combined.

Pro tip: Ensure bacon fat is not hot to avoid cooking the egg.

4

Combine mixtures

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir in the crumbled bacon until a dough forms.

5

Roll out the dough

On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1 cm (1/2 inch) thick.

Pro tip: Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

6

Cut out biscuits

Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

7

Bake the biscuits

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and firm to the touch.

Pro tip: Rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking for even cooking.

8

Cool the biscuits

Remove from oven and let the biscuits cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.
