Make Your Own Pet Treats

Ingredients for doggie peanut butter treats--

1-1/2 cup whole wheat flour

3/4 cup Irish oatmeal

1/4 cup smooth peanut butter

1/4 cup sunflower oil

1/4 cup honey

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup water



Combine the ingredients in a bowl and mix on low speed until thoroughly mixed. Make into balls about one tablespoon in size and place on a ungreased or PAM treated cookie sheet. Flatten the dough balls using a fork until they are about 1/4 inch thick. Alternately roll out the dough and then use an appropriate cookie cutter, like a bone shape. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes or until golden brown. Yields about 20 treats. These should be stored in the refrigerator in a closed container or zip lock freezer bag. (CAUTION, do not be tempted to add or coat the treats with chocolate as that could cause death.)
