Description
Salmon & Sweet Potato Meatloaf for Dogs is a nutritious homemade meal, perfect for boosting your dog’s health and making mealtime enjoyable.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (16 oz) of salmon, cooked and flaked (or low-sodium canned salmon in water)
- 1 large sweet potato, cooked and mashed
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1/2 cup carrots, grated (optional)
- A pinch of turmeric powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by greasing it with a small amount of coconut oil or lining it with parchment paper.
- If using fresh salmon, bake it at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes until it flakes easily, then remove any bones. For canned salmon, ensure it’s low in sodium and drained well.
- Cook the sweet potato until soft and mash it until smooth.
- Grate the carrots and chop the parsley, if using.
- In a large bowl, mix the flaked salmon, mashed sweet potato, egg, oat flour, parsley, grated carrots, and turmeric (if using) until all ingredients are well combined.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, pressing it down to remove air pockets and smooth the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, until the meatloaf is firm to the touch and lightly golden.
- Allow the meatloaf to cool completely before slicing it into portions for your dog.
Notes
- Store leftover meatloaf in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze portions for up to 2 months.
- You can substitute oat flour with chickpea or coconut flour if desired.
- To add more flavor, brush with homemade bone broth before serving.
- Adjust portion sizes based on your dog’s size and dietary needs.
