Around the holidays, there’s no shortage of sweet treats-especially when it comes to us humans. But for dogs, it can be entirely another matter-just the same ol’ kibble.

While it is not safe to share your human treats with your furkids, you can whip up a batch of homemade dog cookies with this simple recipe:

Max’s AHHH-mmmm Morsels

Ingredients:
2 C       Organic Whole Wheat Flour
1 Tbsp  Baking Powder
1 C       Organic Peanut Butter (chunky or smooth)
1/2 C    Organic Chopped Carrot
1 C       Organic Milk
dash     Cinnamon

Instructions:
In one bowl, combine flour, baking powder and cinnamon. In another bowl, combine peanut butter, carrots and milk. Slowly add dry mixture to peanut butter/carrot/milk mixture and blend well into dough. Roll dough out to 1/4 inch thickness on lightly floured surface and cut out shapes using cookie cutters.  Place on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 375˚ F for 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Cookies can burn easily, so watch carefully.  Allow to cool and store in an airtight container.

You can get this recipe on your own keepsake postcard along with a 3 inch dog bone cookie cutter in Max’s store.  Or you copy it here.  Either way, it’s a great way to treat your dogs around the holidays!
