Peanut Butter Dog Bones


These were pretty easy to make and my dogs seem to love them.  I made some with a bone-shaped cookie cutter and for others I rolled the dough into a 1" ball and then pushed down the middle with my thumb to make a little disc-shaped cookie.  You can do whatever shape you like - I'm sure you're dog will find them delicious either way.

Ingredients:
  • 1/4 Cup Peanut Butter
  • 1 Cup Water
  • 1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
  • 2 1/4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 Cup Oatmeal

Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Whisk together oil, water, and peanut butter until well-combined.
  • Slowly mix in whole wheat flour until a dough is formed.
  • Using hands, knead in last bit of flour and then slowly knead in oatmeal until well combined.
  • On floured surface, roll out dough until it is 1/4" - 1/2" thick.
    • The dog bones will not puff up in the oven, so they will only be as thick as you make them.
  • Cut the dough into whatever shape you choose.
  • Cook on ungreased cookie sheet for 30 - 35 minutes (bones will be hard).
  • Allow to cool for 30 - 45 minutes and then store in airtight container.
  • Makes 30 - 36 bones depending on size.


Fritz approves!
