Nothing says lovin' like something from the oven
Here's another pooch-friendly cookie recipe. Both my pups love homemade treats, and I feel better about giving them doggie cookies made with natural ingredients.
I found this recipe on the RVSPCA e-newsletter, Paw Prints. When I am baking holiday cookies for people this weekend, I might as well make up a batch of biscuits for the pooches, too.
1 1/2 cups wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup soy milk
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with foil.
In a bowl, combine flours and baking powder. In another bowl, combine all other ingredients, mixing to smooth consistency.
Gradually add peanut butter mixture to flour mixture and combine well.
Knead dough on a floured surface until pliable (2-3 minutes).
Roll dough until 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 1-by-2 inch rectangles. (Editor's note: use a cookie cutter for holiday shapes. The dogs won't know the difference, but they will look more festive and fun!)
Arrange rectangles on baking sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Completely cool on a rack and store in sealed plastic bags or plastic container.
Refrigerate up to 1 1/2 weeks.
