Description

These crunchy pumpkin peanut butter dog biscuits are a staple in any homemade dog treat rotation. Packed with fiber, healthy fats, and natural sweetness, they’re perfect for dogs of all sizes. They store well, are freezer-friendly, and the dough is easy to work with—ideal for first-time bakers or weekly treat preppers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter (make sure it does not contain xylitol)
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

·         Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

·         In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, eggs, and peanut butter until smooth.

·         Stir in the flour and cinnamon until a dough forms.

·         Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.

·         Use cookie cutters to cut into desired shapes.

·         Place the treats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

·         Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the treats are golden brown and firm.

·         Let them cool completely before serving to your dog.

 

Notes

  • Ensure the peanut butter used is xylitol-free.

  • You can substitute whole wheat flour with oat or rice flour for dogs with gluten sensitivity.

  • For a softer treat, reduce baking time by 5 minutes.

  • These biscuits freeze well for up to 3 months. Store in a freezer-safe container.

 

  • Try using seasonal cookie cutters (bones, hearts, paw prints) to customize shapes for holidays or gifts.
