Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 0.3333 cup peanut butter (unsweetened, xylitol-free)
- 2 large eggs
- 2.5 cups whole wheat flour
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, and eggs. Mix well until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually add the whole wheat flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until a stiff dough forms. You may need to knead the dough with your hands if it becomes too thick for a spoon.
Step 4
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Step 5
Use a cookie cutter in the shape of your choice (e.g., bone, paw, or circle) to cut out the biscuits. Re-roll any scraps of dough to make more biscuits.
Step 6
Place the cut-out biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small amount of space between each one.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the biscuits are firm and lightly golden.
Step 8
Allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.
Step 9
Store the biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
