Peanut Butter Oat Dog Cookies

Here’s a fun treat you can make for your dog!

This recipes is from Mrs. Plant:

Ingredients:

4 cups oat flour
2/3 cup natural peanut butter
2 Tablespoons blackstrap molasses
1 cup water

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Using a standing mixer or large food processor, mix all ingredients, adding a bit more water (if needed) to make a slightly sticky, smooth dough.
Remove from mixer or processor, form a ball, and split the ball in two. Wrap half in plastic wrap or ziploc bag and store for future cookies.
Simply roll small amounts of dough into balls, place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and press down with your fingers to flatten. OR Roll dough out to ½ inch thick and use a cookie cutter to make your dog biscuits.
Bake for 40 minutes. Turn off oven and leave cookies in to dry out.
Store in refrigerator.

Chef’s Notes: This is a double batch and will make 60 1/2-inch biscuits with a small cookie cutter. You can freeze half of the biscuits in a freezer baggie. You can half the recipe if you desire. If you make them 1/4-inch, you only need to bake them for 20 minutes.

Hope your canine friends enjoy 🙂
