Are these the healthiest dog treats in the world?
For this recipe all you need is gelatin, bone broth, a little garlic paste and a mould to set it in - how could it be any easier than that? It is not just super tasty but super healthy, too. Gelatin is great for the skin, nails, coat and joints. Bone broth is anti-inflammatory, great for the blood, the immune system and aids digestion.
No sugar, no gluten, no preservatives, just pure goodness in a tasty treat that your dog will love. Just 3 ingredients needed to make this simple dog treat recipe that makes your dog even healthier! Previously, I told you how to make your own bone broth recipe since it's so good for dogs and making it is a lot cheaper than buying it. I use my Instant Pot pressure cooker and it only takes 4 hours, using a slow cooker it takes 12-24 hours and on the stovetop between 6-12 hours.
I can make bone broth for just the price of some bones, which any decent butcher may give you for free or you can buy in Morrisons! Bone broth is a real super food that helps boost your dog's immune system and overall health. You can buy pet-shaped Jelly Baby moulds from Amazon here or you can use Gummy Bear Mould instead. I'll be using a gelatin I bought online as it's perfect for dogs and it's suger free and natural but any gelatin will do!

Excellent, will give these a try!
How do you store these? In the fridge? How long do they keep?
have you tried making these using golden paste or turmeric gravy?
How long do these keep for? should they be refrigerated?
How many treats does this recipe make? Looking forward to making this!
In the recipe I only use 140 ml of broth and I think that was about enough to fill one tray of jelly babies (12 in total).
Of course. I just add it to make it tastier
