Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
In a blender, combine 1 cup of beef broth, milk, olive oil, cooked beef, honey, minced garlic, parsley, and 1 egg. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, okara, and sesame seeds until evenly mixed.
4
Gradually add the wet mixture from the blender to the dry ingredients. Use a wooden spoon to combine, adding more flour as necessary until the dough is firm and no longer sticky.
5
Shape the dough into a ball, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rest for approximately 10 minutes to relax the gluten.
6
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/2 inch thick. Use cookie cutters or a knife to cut out biscuits in your desired shapes.
7
Place the cut biscuits on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a little space between each one.
8
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until they are firm and golden.
9
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg and 2 tablespoons of beef broth until frothy.
10
After the initial baking time, remove the biscuits from the oven and brush both sides with the egg and broth glaze.
11
Return the biscuits to the oven and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes until they are fully dried and crispy.
12
Once done, take them out and allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack before serving them to your dog.
