Homemade Dog Treat Recipes and Ideas

Homemade Dog Treat Recipe
Cinnamon Apple Cookies

1 large apple
1/4 cup honey (or agave syrup)
1/2 cup of water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup rolled oats
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (for wheat free treats substitute brown rice flour)
1/8 cup whole wheat flour (or brown rice flour)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 ° F (180 ° C).

Core, slice and finely chop the apple (use a food processor if you have one). In a large bowl, combine the pulverized apple bits, honey or agave, water, cinnamon, and rolled oats. Gradually blend in the flour, adding enough to form a stiff dough.

In a small bowl, add 1/8 cup flour. Spoon the dough by rounded teaspoon onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches (5cm) apart. Using the bottom of a glass dipped in the flour (to prevent sticking), flatten each spoonful of dough into a circle. Adjust the size of the drops based on how big a treat you like to feed your dog.You can also shape the cookies by hand.

Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and flip each cookie to brown evenly on both sides. Reduce oven temperature to 325 ° F (180 °C). Return to oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes. Let cool overnight.

Alternatively, the cookies can be dried in a food dehydrator until crisp.

Makes about 3 dozen crunchy cookies, depending on how big you make them.
