Gluten Free Pumpkin + Peanut butter dog treats

Dog Cookie Recipe

Recently tried a new recipe for homemade dog treats and they are simple and the dogs love them.

Some of your dogs tried these at the Howliday Party. Credit to the recipe goes to this website. We put this in the newsletter but decided to post it here too.

They are wheat and gluten free for all of the dogs with allergies. We recommend that they are refrigerated after they are baked.

You can find rice flour at Whole Foods or it is cheaper at Winco in the Bulk section.

When I make them I triple my recipe then I have lots to use for a while.

Ingredients
2 cups White Rice Flour
1/2 cup Peanut Butter
1 cup Pumpkin Puree
2 Eggs
1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. In a large bowl mix all ingredients one at a time, kneading well after each addition.
3. Knead dough into ball and roll onto a floured surface 1/4 inch thick. Cut with the cookie cutter of your choice.
4. Place on your prepared cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Cool and refrigerate.
