Taffy's Favorite Home-Made Cookie Recipe!

This recipe is SIMPLE! If your dog has a grain allergy, supplement the white flour for something like Garbanzo or Fava Bean flour.

Here's what you need:

• 2 cups of Flour (White or grain-free, your preference).
• 3/4 cup of Natural or Organic Peanut Butter (Chunky or Smooth, your preference)
• 2 tablespoons of flax seed oil. (I use Organic flax seed oil, but if you don't want the benefit of Fatty Acids, Olive Oil works well too.)
• 1 cup of H2O.

Combine ingredients until everything is incorporated and forms a dough.
Roll dough out to a thickness roughly 1/2 to 1 cm (0.2- 0.4inch). The thinner, the crunchier the treat will be.
Cut using a cookie cutter, or into triangular strips with a knife.
Place on a cookie sheet, and bake at 325 for roughly 20 minutes. Keep in mind that the thinner the cookie, the faster it will cook, so keep an eye on things so it doesn't burn (not that most dogs would care)!
Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Place in baggies, or a container.




Total time from start to finish to make these cookies is under an hour!


I've found that this recipe yields about four cups of small cookies. Which lasts my dog a week or more. And what's great is that you can add things to make it specific to your dog's needs and tastes! Add herbs like rosemary, flax seeds for extra crunch, or Omega 3, etc!


Great for training exercises. And you know EXACTLY what's in them, because YOU made them! A much healthier alternative to store-bought toxin-filled dog teats like Milkbones. Not to mention cheaper than expensive store-bought treats, which is a big deal when you go through a lot of treats while training!


Hope this inspires other dog owners to give making their own dog cookies a try! Your dog will love you for it!
