Homemade Peanut Butter Dog Treats

The best part of these homemade dog treats is that they’re so easy to make.

Just a few ingredients – whole wheat flour, oats, peanut butter, an egg, chicken broth, a banana, and nonfat dry milk.

These bone-shaped cookie cutters are so cute to use too!  I love that they come in different sizes, perfect for the three sizes of my own dogs.

They keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth

  • Stir in the chicken broth, egg and peanut butter.
  • Fold in the banana.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. If the dough is too sticky, add an additional 1/4 cup flour until the dough is easier to handle. Use your hands to work in the flour.
  • Flatten the dough with a floured rolling pin to about 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Cut with cookie cutters or cut into slices and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool before giving to your dog.

These dog treats will be slightly soft.  If you leave them in the oven longer than the 15 minutes baking time, they will get harder – just be sure to keep a close eye on them so that they don’t burn.
