My husband, Dan and I had a great time playing in the kitchen last week, experimenting with
several horse cookie recipes! I think we came up with a real winner - every horse I've offered them to has gobbled them right down and asked for more! All the ingredients are easy to
obtain and most of you will already have them in your barn and house! You can do your own experimenting with different ingredients and make your own recipe! I’ve named them after
my new Arab gelding, Crusoe, because he insists when he sees me feed them to other horses, “Those are MY cookies!” Enjoy! - Danelle S. 4/2/01
8 cups dry cob feed (corn, oats, barley mix)
3 cups ground carrots
1/2 cup corn oil
2 cups flour
2 cups molasses (use livestock grade from feed store - it's cheaper!)
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until well mixed. Let stand for at least an hour (so the grain can absorb some of the moisture). Stir the mixture well. Drop by rounded teaspoonful on to a well oiled cookie sheet. Using your fingers and the teaspoon 'smoosh' the cookie into a round slightly flattened shape.
Bake at 350° F for 12 to 18 minutes, depending on your oven. These will burn easily so be sure not to leave them in too long. I bake mine in a convection oven for 12 minutes and that's about perfect but you'll probably need to leave them in longer if you have a conventional oven. Put the cookies on racks to cool then store them in a tight container. This recipe makes between 6-9 dozen cookies depending on how big you want to make them!
One of our horses' favorites served up on a cold winter morning!
1 or 2 T. salt
A ration of rolled, crushed or crimped oats
A few cut up carrots
A few cut up apples
1 c. molasses or 2 T. linseed meal for extra taste
Mix all ingredients in a feed bucket. Combine with suitable quantity of boiling water (completely soaked up by oats).
Cover and let steam until cool enough to feed to your horse. (30-45 minutes preparation time).
Variation: Use applesauce instead of apples and carrots.
Especially good for pregnant mares during the late months of their term!
8 - 12 c. wheat bran
1 c. rolled, crushed or crimped oats
1/4 c. corn oil
1/4 c. molasses
1-1/2 to 2-1/2 c. boiling water
1 carrot, sliced
1 apple, sliced
Combine bran and oats in feed bucket. Add boiling water to desired consistency. Stir in oil, molasses,
carrot and apple. Cover and allow to sit. Serve when cool enough to feed.
