What you need:

• Coconut oil which has lots of healthy fats
• Coconut flour
• Cooked Sweet potatoes
• Gelatin powder (full of healthy amino acids that are great for their skin, fur and nails)
• Tuna (or any canned fish- sardines are great too!)
• Egg (full of good fats and helps treats stick together)

Bake on a baking sheet with natural parchment paper to avoid sticking and store in a glass jar in the fridge.

Ingredients:

2. Mix all ingredient in a medium size bowl.
3. Use a fork to mash everything together until evenly mixed and until all large pieces of fish and sweet potato are mashed up.

6. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
