- Take the dough and roll it out on a floured countertop until it is ½ inch thick. It should be a crumbly dough. If you would like to firm it up slightly, add in 2-3 Tablespoons of water.
- Once rolled out, use a dog-inspired cookie cutter to cut out cookies and set them on the sheet pan.
- Bake for 15-25 minute or until golden brown. Remove and let cool before serving.
Notes
IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember to consult with your veterinarian before introducing any new treats into your dog’s diet, especially if your dog has specific health conditions or dietary restrictions. I recommend giving them a small bite to test before using them regularly.
Storage:
You can store your peanut butter dog bones at room temperature for a day or two, but afterwards they should be placed in the refrigerator or freezer in an airtight container. If stored in the refrigerator, they will keep for up to 10 days. If you freeze them, they will stay fresh for a few months.
Tips:
- The cook time for these peanut butter dog bones is dependent on how soft or crunchy you would like the treats and how large your cookie cutter are. I like to bake three different sizes of treats at the same time and temperature so that I have a variety of crispy and soft treats, depending on what I would like to feed my dog at the time.
- The cookie dough should be crumbly. If you would like to firm it up slightly, add in 2-3 Tablespoons of water.
