Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (unsweetened, no xylitol)
1/2 cup water (adjust as needed)
1 large egg
Optional: a handful of rolled oats or flaxseed meal for added texture and nutrients
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and creamy peanut butter. Mix until the peanut butter is evenly distributed and forms small crumbles.
Add the water and egg to the flour and peanut butter mixture. Stir or knead until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water until it comes together. You want a firm but pliable dough.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes or simply use a knife to cut the dough into squares or rectangles.
Place the cut-out biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack. They will harden as they cool. Store the peanut butter doggie biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature. They should last for about a week or longer if kept in the refrigerator.
These homemade peanut butter doggie biscuits are a delightful and healthy treat for your furry friend. They're free from artificial additives and provide a tasty reward for good behavior or simply to show your pup some love. Plus, they're easy to make and customizable, allowing you to create special treats tailored to your dog's preferences. Enjoy baking for your beloved pet!
