Love 'Em Honey Bread


This book came to us as a gift and that's certainly the word we'd use for it. 
The recipes in here are what keep us best friends with our furry little companions, otherwise I don't think they'd like us so much.

Love 'Em Honey Bread
(about 6 loves or muffins or about 23 mini-muffins)


Muffin Mix

2 cups whole-wheat flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
6-8 ounces sour cream or unflavored yogurt
     (we used CHOBANI Greek Plain Yogurt)
1/4 cup warm honey


Chicken Glaze

1/2 cup chicken broth
1 package unflavored gelatin 


For the Muffins

Set oven to 375 degrees, set out 2 cookie trays lined with mini-muffin cups.

In a large bowl, using a wire whisk, blend together flour and baking powder.


In a medium bowl, using a wire whisk, beat the eggs until thick and light-colored.


Beat in yogurt and honey.



Using a spatula or by hand, combine both mixtures until they form a dough.



Break off tablespoon-sized chunks of dough and roll them into balls with your hands.


Place each ball into a mini-muffin cup.


Bake for 10 minutes or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of each muffin comes out clean. 


Set aside on wire racks to cool.

For the Glaze

Mix 1 cup of boiling water with a chicken bouillon cube or packet of powder. Mix until dissolved. 


In a small bowl combine chicken broth and gelatin, stirring with a spoon until well mixed.


Place the cooled muffins back onto the cookie trays to avoid making a mess
...and believe us, we know all about messes...
With a brush or spoon, cover the top of each muffin with glaze.


Set aside to cool and to let the glaze form. Refrigerate leftovers.

Note: We've noticed that some dogs are sensitive to milk products, therefore we decided to use yogurt in place of sour cream so it would be easier on their little systems. Every dog is different though, become familiar with your own dog's system and use what works best for them.

Enjoy!

They certainly did, look at those tails go!


Yum :)
