- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of *pumpkin puree* and 2 cups of *whole wheat flour*.

- On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick.
- Use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes, or simply cut the dough into squares with a knife.
- Place the cut-out treats on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the treats are firm to the touch and lightly golden.
- Allow the treats to cool on a wire rack before serving them to your dog.
