Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter (unsalted, natural, no sugar added)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, and the egg until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a small amount of water (1 teaspoon at a time) until it comes together.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use small, dog-friendly cookie cutters to cut out shapes.
Place the cutouts on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each treat.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the treats are firm and golden brown.
Remove the treats from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.
Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
