Homemade dog treats (quick and healthy!)
This is a quick treat recipe that your furry friend will love! I used garbanzo bean flour (they love chickpeas!), but feel free to use whole wheat instead.
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup garbanzo bean flour (can use whole wheat instead)
3 eggs (reserve 1 for the egg wash)
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup peanut butter (check the ingredients for peanuts and salt only)
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
All-purpose flour for rolling
Cookie cutters of choice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine two eggs (set aside one for the egg wash), peanut butter, pumpkin puree, flour, and oatmeal. Stir until a dough forms, adding more garbanzo bean flour or a little all-purpose flour if needed.
- Sprinkle some all-purpose flour onto a clean surface and add the dough. It will be kind of sticky, so use the flour to coat the outside of the dough as you roll it to about 1/2-inch thick.
- Cut into shapes, then place gently onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Combine the remaining dough, roll, and repeat.
- To make the egg wash, in a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg and 1 tablespoon of water. Use a pastry brush to paint the top of each treat with the egg wash.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, until hard and brown on the bottoms.
- Let cool completely before storing or serving.
