Kosher dog biscuits

I read recently that turmeric is good for you. I guess it's good for Linda too. She liked these biscuits very much. Even licked up the crumbs that fell as she ate them.
Makes about 100 small biscuits.

Preheat oven to 180C. Lightly grease two baking sheets.

1 can of tuna in oil. Don't drain.
1 tablespoon turmeric
2 eggs
1 cup of raw seeds (sesame, sunflower, flax, pumpkin... use your imagination).
2 cups of whole wheat flour.

Using a food processor, mix all the ingredients except the flour until smooth. Add the flour in two batches. Mix until a ball forms around the blade. Add flour if necessary.

Roll in small balls, place on baking tray and press down with a finger to flatten slightly.
Alternatively, roll out dough on a floured surface to about 1cm thick and use a cookie cutter to make fancy shapes. Any leftover bits can be rerolled once. After that, just feed the leftover bits to the dog raw.

Bake for 25-30 minutes. Leave in oven to harden overnight. Take some out immediately for the little humans to taste.
