Mint Apple-Butter Dog Biscuits

Ingredients:

Vegetable oil --2 tbsp.
peanut butter --1/2 cup
water --1 cup
whole wheat flour --3/4 cup
white flour --3/4 cup
dried mint flakes --3 to 4 tbsp.
dried apple bits --1/4 cup

What You Will Need:

Sheet of Silicone
Mini Baking Molds
Measuring Cups
*Wax Paper
*Cookie Cutters

Directions:

1) Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

2) From there, combine the vegetable oil, peanut butter, mint flakes, apple bits, and water in a bowl. Add both the wheat, and white flour a little at a time until a doughy consistency forms. You may also use a food processor if you like.

3) Knead the dough into small firm balls (sizes will vary according to the size of the baking molds) and pack them firmly -but not too tightly- into the molds of your baking pan.

You may also use cookie cutters if you prefer. If so, knead the dough into a firm ball and roll it out flat until it is about ¼ of an inch thick. Press firmly down on your chosen cookie cutter, but avoid jittering it around. If you jitter the cookie cutter, the shape of the cookie will not be formed properly and may break apart after it’s baked.

4) Cook for 20 to 30 minutes, and let cool completely before removing from pan or decorating.

Makes 2 1/2 dozen biscuits.
