Peanut Butter Dog Treats

With the influx of dog food recalls, I cannot help but be wary of any pet food product found on the shelves at the local pet supplies stores. My concern is not just with the dog food, but also with the treats. After scanning the ingredients list of several brands, I was alarmed at the number of ingredients that are not only unidentifiable, but also contain wheat, corn, gluten, and soy - all ingredients that are commonly connected to food allergies in dogs. Furthermore, have you ever looked at the treat aisle, packed with hundreds of varieties of treats, and wondered how long they have actually sat on those shelves? How fresh could they actually be? Taste aside, would you even consider eating those treats without knowing how fresh they are? I am guessing the answer is no, so why would you think about feeding them to your best pet-friend?

I feel the same way as you, which is why I am constantly looking for recipes to make yummy treats at home. You can find a number of excellent recipes on Pinterest, many of which I have tried at home and have been dog approved by the “girls”. Additionally, I have tried to come up with some tasty creations of my own. 

I already shared with you the dog-house favorite: Pumpkin Cookies. Now, I am excited to share with you another recipe that is not only easy to make, but also quite popular with my quality control team…

Peanut Butter Press Cookies

Ingredients: 
1 ½ cups Oat Flour 
1 ½ cups Brown Rice Flour 
1 Egg
½ cup All Natural Peanut Butter (no sugar added…I like to use Krema Nut)
½ cup water

Directions: 
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Combine all the ingredients into one bowl, mixing thoroughly.
4. Roll dough into 1” balls and place on lined cookie sheet. You may place them close together as these will not spread out while baking. 
5. Using a fork, press down on each ball to slightly flatten out.
6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and hard when pressed. 
7. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your pups.

**These can be stored in an airtight doggie treat container.
***As with all of my recipes, I like to use organic ingredients whenever possible.

The best thing about these cookies is that you can take comfort in knowing that you are feeding your canine companion a healthy, preservative-free treat that he or she will thoroughly enjoy!
