Ingredients

  • 1 ripe pear, peeled and pureed

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter (ensure it’s xylitol-free)
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the pear puree, applesauce, and peanut butter until smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the whole wheat flour and ground cinnamon.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches a workable consistency.
  5. Roll and Cut: On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut out treats.
  6. Bake: Place the treats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Cool: Let the treats cool completely on a wire rack before serving them to your dog.
