Horses: Stuffed Molasses Apples

Source of Recipe


From "The Original Book of Horse Treats" by June Evers



List of Ingredients



• 2 apples
  
• 1 cup bran
  
• 1 carrot, shredded
  
• ¾ cup molasses
  
• ½ cup brown sugar
  
• ½ cup sweet feed
  
• 2 sprigs of parsley or green carrot top
  
• 2 seedless green grapes
  
• Confectioners' sugar
  






Instructions



1. Core 2 apples and dig out as much of the center as you can, as you would a pumpkin at Halloween. Set this aside.
   
   
2. Mix shredded carrot with bran, molasses, brown sugar and sweet feed in a large bowl. Add more molasses or bran to give mixture a stiff consistency. Scoop mixture out of the bowl and press into cored apples. Press fairly tightly.
   
   
3. To garnish:
   Drip a small amount of molasses over the top so it runs down the sides of the apple. Add a sprig of parsley or carrot greens, top with a seedless green grape, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve immediately. Serve in a feed bucket, as this is a gooey treat.
   
   Serves 2 horses.
   
   
   Super Suggestion:
   Terrific for hiding worming medication or other veterinary-prescribed medicines.
