These Yogurt and Peanut Butter Dog Treats are a delightful combination of creamy, nutty, and slightly sweet. The treats are crunchy on the outside while remaining soft and chewy on the inside, making them perfect for all dogs, regardless of age.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain yogurt (unsweetened and unflavored)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (make sure it’s dog-safe, without xylitol)
- 2 cups whole wheat flour (or oat flour for a gluten-free option)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for added sweetness)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, peanut butter, egg, and honey (if using). Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the whole wheat flour and rolled oats to the wet mixture. Stir until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour.
- Shape the Treats: Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the treats are golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the treats cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.
