Baking and eating Christmas cookies is one of the best parts of December. But let’s not forget about our furry familiy members. Spoil your dog for the holidays with these super easy Christmas cookies for dogs. Simple and delicious!
Peanut Butter Pumpkin Cookies
Ingredients:
- 225 g pumpkin puree
- 2 eggs
- 45 g oats
- 375 g whole wheat flour, brown rice flour, or gluten free flour
- 3 tablespoons of all natural peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 175°C.
- In small bowl, stir together the flour, oats, and cinnamon.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin and peanut butter until combined. Stir wet ingredients into dry.
- Pour onto a floured surface and roll dough out. Cut out using Christmas cookie cutters.
- The dough will be a little sticky, a dusting of flour for your hands and the rolling pin will, therefore, help! Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown.
- Place on cooling racks and let cool thoroughly. The cookies will harden as they cool.
