Super Easy Dog Treat Recipes

A client gave me these recipes and they are great. I made them this past weekend and they were easy and well received by our dogs. I thought I'd share them with you. Happy baking!

Basic Gourmet Dog Snack

These are easy and very good (well at least my parents dog loves them!).

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Mix together all ingredients.
3. Gently roll out to ¼ inch thickness.
4. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutter.
5. Bake 30 – 40 minutes
6. Allow to cool and store in a tightly sealed container.

Easy Microwave Doggie Treats

These are also easy and turn out very good. I was a little apprehensive about trying this recipe the first time but now it is one of my favorite dog treat recipes.

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Combine flour, cornmeal, milk, oats and sugar.
2. Cut into shortening.
3. Add egg, bouillon and hot water.
4. Knead 5 minutes.
5. Roll ½ inch thick and cut out with cookie cutters. (Bone shapes are great! The smaller shapes work better and allow the cookie to cook more evenly. If possible – avoid extra large cookie shapes for this microwave recipe.)
6. Microwave in a microwave proof dish at 50% power for 5 to 10 minutes. (I've always needed close to 10 minutes).
7. Allow to cool – remove from plate.
8. Allow to cool and store in tightly sealed container.

* If you don't have the granules – use one bouillon cube in the ½ cup of hot water. Allow to dissolve and t his works great too.
