Ingredients:

• 1 cup applesauce (plain, unsweetened, without any additives)

• 2 large eggs
• 4 cups oat flour (plus 1/2 cup more if necessary and for dusting)
• 1 cup grated carrots (peeled first)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set it aside for later use.

3. Add in the oat flour, grated carrots, and coconut flakes to the bowl. Mix the ingredients until they are just incorporated. If the dough crumbles when pinched, add a little water. If it's too sticky, gradually add up to 1/2 cup more oat flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough becomes slightly tacky but not excessively so.
4. Transfer the dough to a surface lightly sprinkled with oat flour and knead it 3-4 times until it comes together.
5. Use a rolling pin dusted with oat flour to roll out the dough to a thickness of approximately 1/2 inch.
6. With the help of cookie cutters, cut out the desired shapes from the dough and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
7. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the treats until they become dry and their edges turn golden, which usually takes about 18-20 minutes.
8. Once baked, allow the treats to cool completely before serving them to your dog.

Now you have a batch of delightful carrot cake dog treats that your furry friend will adore! Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer. Enjoy baking and treating your beloved pup with these homemade goodies!
