Does anyone know any recipes for healthy horse treats?

I am looking for something specifically with flax seed and paprika. I've read that paprika is used to prevent fading and flax seed is good for their coat and hooves. I thought if I could combine these in a treat that I could give daily, they would be more likely to eat it than sprinkling all of this extra stuff on their grain. Let me know if anyone has any good recipes. Thanks!Does anyone know any recipes for healthy horse treats?
I use both of these on my horses.. ha ha I just mix it in their grain, they eat it no problem that way, though, my gelding loves the paprika more then my mare I think.. He licks his feed pan clean.. One thing I'll let you know now, do NOT, under any circumstance use any recipe that calls for baking the horse treats.. Paprika is heat-activated and becomes 'hotter' when warmed and your horses certainly won't eat it that way (also, be sure to store it in a cool, dry place anyway). Heat also gets rid of all the good attributes of the flax seed, they would just be a waste of money. Ok, on to a couple 'treat' ideas.. But I'd still prefer to just add it in with grain as I don't believe in giving treats daily, but to each their own.. :)





Basically you can add flax and paprika to any combination of different foods your horse likes and use molasses or honey to bind it.. Oats, oatmeal, apples, carrots, sweet feed, calf mana, sugar free applesauce, a bit of brown sugar, peppermints, bran, ect.. You could feed it sticky and gooey or shape it and refrigerate it and feed it later. Just be aware that these treats will not keep very long, so only make enough for one day, two at best..





A treat idea for special occasions--


Core an apple, fill it with the flax, paprika, molasses, and anything else your horse likes.. Oats, grated carrots, honey, sweet feed, ect..





Here are a couple links to search through if you like.. Remember to use only no-bake recipies though.. Also, if you're using 'rich' ingredients, be sure to only make a small amount for your horses.. 'All things in moderation.'
