Crunchy Dog Bones

These high-quality dog treats are easy to make.  They don’t look like dog treats, unless you use a dog bone cookie cutter.  One year I gave them to my doctor’s wife for her dog and the doctor thought they were for him and he ate one.  He said they were delicious!

2 cups of whole wheat flour
1 cup of rolled oats
½ cup of nonfat milk powder
½ tsp salt
1 cup of crunchy peanut butter
¼ cup honey
2 eggs
½ cup water

Combine the flour, oats, nonfat milk powder and salt in large bowl, stir to combine. Add peanut butter, honey and eggs. Beat to combine, gradually adding ¼ cup of water to make the dough come together. Put dough onto a 13 x 18” cookie sheet, lined with parchment paper. Roll out dough into ½” thick rectangle. Chill for an hour.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cut dough into 3 x 1 ½ “ squares or use a dog shaped cookie cutter. Place on parchment-lined cookie sheet and bake for 45-55 minutes or until firm and golden brown.

Makes about 20-25 dog treats.

I made these today for my dog Chino’s 11th Birthday!
