Ingredients:
1 ½ cups unsweetened applesauce
1 cup oat bran cereal or ground oatmeal
½ cup all purpose flour (approx.)

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350F
Oil a 9inch x 9inch square cake pan

Spread the batter evenly in the cake pan and bake for 20-30 minutes. The batter will start to shrink away from the sides and it will be firm to the touch. Slice into squares while still warm. Keep chewies in the refrigerator in an air-tight container or bag.

CRUNCHY MOLASSES HORSE COOKIES
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:
1 ½ cup all purpose flour
1 cup bran
1 cup molasses
1 cup grated carrot or apple

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 375F
Oil two cookie sheets
Put aside a small bowl of white sugar and a drinking glass with a flat bottom.

In a large bowl mix all the ingredients thoroughly. The mixture shouldn’t be too wet, and should stick together. Add more flour to make the mixture firmer and hold together if necessary. Drop by teaspoonfuls, about 1 ½ inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. Grease the bottom of the glass, dip it in the sugar, and stamp the cookies to flatten them slightly. Bake for about 10 minutes. This makes about 25 cookies, depending on the size. Store in an air-tight container or bag.

Is it your horsey's birthday!?! Make them a horse cake!! Just follow these simple instructions. This girl named Geddes at the barn that I ride at made a pony this cake & he loved it! Then I decided to make Brandy a cake & she loved it!! Follow these simple instructions!

For this recipe, you will need:
Bran , Oats, Molasses, Shredded carrots and anything other that your horse likes!

Mix the bran, oats & molasses together--use especially a lot of molasses to help the mixture harden. Then place it in a flat pan & smooth it out like a cake. Then place the shredded carrots over the "cake". Then, pour a little bit of molasses over the cake to make it set & harden better. Decorate it with candles (carrots) & icing (shredded carrots). Then, let it sit in the fridge over night to harden. My horsey loves this & so will your's!!

Ingredients:

~ one whole apple finley chopped ~ 1/4 cup of water ~ two carrots finley chopped ~ maple syrup (about 1/8 cup) or regular syrup (not as much as maple) ~ 1 cup of cooking oats

~Mix all ingredients together in a bowl (the mixture should be sticky but not very sticky) ~Use a muffin or "cupcake" pan grease it (flouring it is better for the horses) and put about 1 and 1/2 spoons of the mixture in each compartment... ~Spread evenly and pack down ~ Bake for about 10 minutes on 425 degrees ~ DO NOT TAKE TREATS OUT OF THE OVEN UNTIL THE OVEN IS COMPLETELY COOL OR THEY WILL GET MUSHY!!!! ~ break into pieces and serve about 1/4 to 1/2 to your horse every now and then....don't ever give a whole one unless they are teeny tiny b/c it could give the horse a sweet tooth.... That is all....it's that simple!!!!!

Thanks

Pony Salad - You will need:

1/2 cup finely chopped apple
1 cup of oats
2-3 cups finely chopped carrot
1/2 cup sugar cubes
1/2 cup molasses

Mix all the ingredients in large bowl (don't feed your pony more than about a cup of the Pony Salad your pony could get a sweet tooth) . It makes a great treat for your pony after a show!

Janet Doyle: I just made this up tonight and I think horses will like it

You will need:
-One medium to large apple -Cooking oats -Molasses -Chopped up carrots -Crushed bran flakes

Hollow out the apple with a peeler as much as you can scooping out the insides. Pour some oats in to it then add some molasses, repeating this until you have a centimeter to go. Make sure you stir the oats and molasses with a strong tool like a chop stick. Put some carrots on top and push them down, squeezing a bit of molasses out the top and add the crushed bran flakes. put it in a freezable bag and stick it in the freezer. Take it out when you're ready, and warm it up a bit. Then (Duh) feed your very very good horse the treat. Now that is a reward!

A treat that my horse and my friend's horse loves is a homemade grain-like stuff. First you need:
2 cups oats
1 cup molasses
1/2 finely chopped apple
1/4 cup water
carrot ( if you want to)

First you mix them all together, they should be sticky, but not too sticky. Then bake them in the oven at 425 for about 10 min. When the 10 min is up, leave the grain in the oven until the oven is cool My horses love this for any occasion- Christmas, Halloween, birthdays, etc.

Carrot Cake
- 1 plastic bowl (like a cheap cool-whip bowl)
- 2-3 large carrots chopped up length-wise
- 1 large apple chopped up length-wise
- molasses
- brown sugar
- white sugar cubes

Take your carrots and put them in the bottom of your bowl. then take the apples and make that the next layer, then do one more layer of carrots and then pack the top with brown sugar. Next, take your molasses and drip it over the top. then put your sugar cubes over the top of the molasses (for decoration.) *this is a good cake to share with equine friends!- may be too much for just one horse!
