With the weather turning chilly, Halloween over with, and Thanksgiving right around the corner....it's time to get into the Fall spirit! Here is a recipe for homemade dog treats made with pumpkin. Pumpkin is great for dogs and can help with upset stomachs and aid in weight loss.
Pup-kin Biscuits
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons dry milk
1 cup white flour
1/3 cup corn meal
1/2 cup oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup water + 1 tablespoon water
Directions:
-Mix everything in your mixer. This dough will be thick like cookie dough, so make sure that you use the appropriate beater.
-When the dough is mixed thoroughly, roll it into rectangular sheets that are 1/4" thick.
-Using a pizza cutter, cut the dough into 1/2” parallel strips. Don't move the strips—leave them in place on your cutting board.
-Now, cut the dough into little squares. The squares don't have to be perfectly even. Your dog will love them just the same!
-Transfer the pumpkin biscuits to a lightly greased baking sheet.
-Bake the dog biscuits at 250 degrees F for about an hour. Since the biscuits are fairly small, they can brown quickly. Check them occasionally toward the end of the baking time, to make sure that they are not getting too dark.
-Turn off the oven, and let the dog biscuits continue to dry overnight in the oven.
-ENJOY!!!
