Horse Oat Cookies
1/2 C. Flour
1/4 t. Baking Powder
1/4 t. Baking Soda
1/4 C. Oil
1/2 C. Sugar
1 T. Milk
1/4 t. Vanilla
1/4 C. Uncooked oatmeal
1 1/2 C. Shredded Carrots

Roll dough into 1 inch balls and bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. Let your babies enjoy!!
(Also you can substitute the vegetable oil for olive oil, and you can add almost anything to these! My horse loves peppermints. Also don't use brown sugar, It contains molasses!)

Apple Chewies
2 parts plain oats (I use Quaker)
One part organic no sugar-added apple sauce
1. Mix in bowl with small amount of flour, just enough to help hold them together.
2. Bake at 225 for an hour.

Horsey Pie
3 sliced apples
2 teaspoons honey
8 peppermints, crushed
2 handfuls oatmeal, plain
3 teaspoons peanut butter
1/2 cup applesauce

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix honey, 1 handful oats, peanut butter, and applesauce in a bowl. Stir and put in microwave for 45 seconds. Spread apple slices in a baking dish. Add mixture on top of apples. Sprinkle peppermint and one handful of oats on top. Bake for 20 minutes or until peppermint melts. Once the peppermint is melted, it looks strange; but your horses will like it. Let cool until warm and sprinkle a little sugar on the top. Feed a little at a time to make sure it doesn't upset your horse's stomach.

Peppermint Apples
1 large apple
1 shredded carrot
1/2 cup oats
1/4 cup honey
5 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
3 crushed peppermints (or more)

Cut the apples in large chunks and set aside. Mix the honey, peppermints, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Mix the oats and carrots in a separate shallow bowl. Next, coat the apple chunks in the honey mixture and roll in the oat mixture. Place on a plate or tupperware container and refrigerate until you feed to horses. Do not let recipe sit for more than two days. The recipe makes plenty for two horses. Enjoy!
