If you have a dog then I am sure that they will love these treats! They are made with whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour which is a lot healthier for your pups! Our dogs always devour their treats when we give it to them, and I am sure yours will do the same.
Ingredients:
For the treats
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 egg
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup water
- 2 tbsp. honey
For the frosting
- 1/2 cup cornstarch, arrowroot powder, or potato starch
- 3 tbsp. peanut butter
- 1 1/2 tbsp. honey
- 5 tbsp. water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl combine the flour and egg. Then add in the peanut butter, honey, and water until you have a stiff dough (it will become very firm and sticky.)
- On a lightly floured surface roll out your dough to 1/2 and inch thickness. Then you can make any fun shapes that you would like!
4. Bake for 10-15 minutes depending on the size of your cookies. Once they are done let them cool before frosting them.
5. To make the frosting combine peanut butter (softened) and honey. You may have to microwave for a few seconds to make sure it is melted. Then add it to the cornstarch. Once combined you can begin adding 1 tbsp. of water at a time until your frosting is thin and easy to pipe!
6. Finally you can now pipe and decorate the adorable treats. Then you can see if they passed the test and if your dog likes it!
7. Store in the fridge for up to 2 months or in the freezer for 5 months.
Notes:
If your dog doesn’t do well with wheat or flour you could substitute the wheat flour for coconut flour or rice flour. These flours would most likely work but it may slightly change the consistency.
Some brands of peanut butter contain xylitol to cut the amount of sugar in it, but this is poisonous to dogs. So make sure to check the ingredients of the peanut butter before feeding to you dogs.
I am pawsitive that your dog will love these treats just as much as mine! 😉
