Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Wooden spoon
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup wheat flour
- 1/8 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- 1/8 cup fresh basil finely chopped
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tsp olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure it's ready to go when your dough is.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In your mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour with the finely chopped parsley and basil. Make sure these herbs are fresh and safe for your hamster.
- Add Liquids: To the dry mixture, add the water and olive oil. Stir with your wooden spoon until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a tiny bit more water. It should be firm but not sticky.
- Shape the Drops: Pinch off small pieces of dough and roll them into tiny balls, about the size of a pea. Remember, we're making these for tiny mouths!
- Baking Time: Place your dough balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure they're spaced out as they might spread a tiny bit.
- Bake with Love: Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until they are firm and slightly golden.
- Cooling Down: Once done, take them out and let them cool completely. They'll harden a bit more as they cool.
- Feeding Your Furry Friend: Offer one to your hamster as a treat. Remember, treats should only be a small part of their diet!
- Storing the Extras: Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
