Equipment
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, applesauce, and egg. Mix until well blended.
- Gradually add the oat flour and whole wheat flour to the mixture, stirring to combine.
- If the dough is too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time until a firm dough forms.
- Add cinnamon if using, and mix until evenly distributed.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the treats are golden brown.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
Storage & Reheating:
Store these treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For longer storage, you can freeze the treats for up to three months. Remember, these are *occasional snacks* for your pup, not a complete diet. Introduce new treats gradually and consult your veterinarian if your dog has health conditions or allergies. Variations:
- Substitute unsweetened pumpkin puree for applesauce for a pumpkin flavor.
- Add 1/4 cup of chopped carrots for extra crunch and nutrition.
- Mix in a handful of blueberries for a fruity twist.
