Pumpkin Dog Treats


Showing your dog a little love with tasty homemade treats just got easier — and healthier.

Guaranteed to get those tails wagging, these delicious snacks are good for your pet, and they’re fun to make. Plus, when you make them yourself, you know each and every ingredient! Have fun!

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 large eggs
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
2 tbsp natural peanut butter avoid any peanut butter that contains the sweetener Xylitol
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together eggs, cinnamon, pumpkin, flour, salt and peanut butter. This mixture will become stiff, dry and crumbly quickly when first mixing.
  3. Add a little water to help moisten the ingredients, then work and knead the dough. Only add a tablespoon or so as you go. You want the dough to end up being a dry and thick consistency.
  4. Flour your countertop and roll the dough out to be about 1/2 inch thick. Use your cookie cutters to cut out individual treats and place on a greased baking sheet. You don’t need to separate them a ton, they don’t rise much.
  5. You will have left over dough after cutting out the first batch of treats. Quickly knead and roll out the dough left over dough to make even more!
  6. Bake for about 35 minutes or until hard. Serve to your fur baby! They will be living their best doggy life!
