Yum!  Let's look at another healthy treat for the household pups.  This one uses ingredients that you already have around the kitchen.  It's full of nutrition ... if given in moderation, of course!

PUMPKIN-PEANUT BUTTER TREATS

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
• 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (I like to use natural... no sugar or xylitol)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and stir until combined. The mixture will be somewhat dry, but it will come together when you roll it out.
• Move the dough to a floured mat and use your hands to mix the dough some more so it is well combined. Roll out the dough. Cut into shapes (dog bone, round or whatever shape you want), and transfer the cut-out biscuits to the baking sheets.
• Bake for 30 minutes. You can bake both sheets at the same time. Just put them on two different racks. The baked biscuits will be crisp, but not rock hard. Some might puff up a bit and some will stay flat.
• Biscuits will be fine in a covered container for up to one week. If you want to freeze them, you may throw them in a freezer zip baggie and take them out to defrost as you wish.
