Peanut Butter Dog Treats
Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter*
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 F.
- Mix together your flour, peanut butter & eggs in a large bowl until slightly combined.
- Add in a little bit of water (approximately one Tbsp at a time) until the mixture becomes wet enough to roll out as dough.
- Roll out your dough & cut out your favorite shapes with some cookie cutters.
- Place your treats onto your baking sheet & cook for about 15 minutes.
- (Optional: I like to brush the top and bottom of mine with coconut oil to keep them moist.)
