Homemade Pumpkin and Peanut Butter Dog Treats Recipe
Scale
Ingredients
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups whole wheat flour (plus ¼ extra on standby if needed)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. (I used a 16×12 baking sheet – a little bigger would be better)
- Place the eggs, peanut butter, and pumpkin in a stand mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on high speed until well combined (about 2-3 minutes). Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour a ¼ cup at a time until dough is no longer sticky-add more flour if needed. Dough will separate from the sides of the bowl when ready.

- Place dough on a lightly floured surface and need by hand until dough comes together (my dough was still a little sticky so I added a little more flour at this time).

- Using a rolling pin roll dough out to a ¼ inch thickness and cut using a cookie cutter into the shapes you want; place on baking sheet.

- Let cool – and give your dog a treat!!

November 5, 2016 at 6:58 pmThis looks easy enough for first time treat maker! I would also like to frost them with either carob or yogurt chips. Do you know where I can find them? Can I color the yogurt chips? Is food coloring safe for dogs? Thanks in advance for your help! My plan is to make some as Christmas gifts for family dogs!

November 6, 2016 at 5:38 amI would try a health food store for the carob. As far as coloring I would not use it just because I am trying to keep the ingredients as natural as possible. I think the color of the carob and yogurt in contrast with the natural color of the dog treats would go well together. (you can google the ingredients for safety but I think you are good with both of these ingredients)
Good luck and thanks for your comment.
