OUR LITTLE STAR TURNS TWO!

ZIGGY STAR BARKER IS TWO YEARS OLD TODAY!

To celebrate, we baked her a batch of dog biscuits which she will share with the brothers, aka The Grumpy and The Royal.

DOG BISCUITS

250 g smooth peanut butter (about 1 cup)
2 eggs
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 + 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
3/4 cup of water
pinch of salt

Whisk peanut butter and eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Add all other ingredients and mix, adjusting with more water or flour to form a nice dough.

Roll out, cut shapes and bake at 350F for 18 minutes.

Serve to your well-behaved pup and wait for the two paws up!

DOG COOKIES

This is a very simple recipe based on peanut butter and pumpkin puree, super easy to put together, and it will receive two-paws up by the most discriminating canine palates out there. Woof, woof!


DOG COOKIES
(from this site)

1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
1/3 Cup Peanut Butter, smooth
2 large Eggs
2 + 1/2 Cups Whole Wheat Flour
¾ Teaspoon Cinnamon

Heat the oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a mixer use the paddle attachment to combine the pumpkin, peanut butter, and eggs at medium-high speed. Add in the flour and cinnamon and mix until a stiff dough has formed. Turn the dough out on a lightly floured surface and roll out to ¼ inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut your desired shapes.

Bake for about 20-25 minutes, until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Cool on a rack.

Comments: Make sure to use peanut butter that contains only peanuts and salt, no additives. Xylitol, which is present in some brands, is very toxic for dogs, so do not use it. The classic shapes are obviously bones and paws, but you can cut in squares, even using a knife or bench scraper and it will be even easier and faster. Pups won’t mind!
