Look at this face…..how can you not just love her?
Especially when her wrinkly little face looks up at me while I’m in the kitchen working on some recipe. Just tears at my heart strings. Thus the other day, I dedicated the afternoon to making our little puggle, Bella, a big ol’ bag of Peanut Butter Puppy Treats.
The great thing about baking your little buddy treats at home is that you know EXACTLY what’s in it. None of that animal by-product stuff…..And trust me, after catching an episode of Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel, you’ll be reading the ingredients list on EVERY thing you buy your four-legged little friends.
Bella LOVED them……she ate them in the same manner that I attack french fries. We actually gave them a try but it just tasted like a dry cracker to us. But then again, we don’t have the same discerning palette as puggles 🙂
Got a four-legged buddy? Make their day by whipping up a batch of these treats. The molasses and honey I added give it just a little more touch of love.
Bella says “Omigosh! Finally-she baked for me!!!”
Bella’s Peanut Butter Puppy Treats
Adapted from Brown Eyed Baker
Ingredients:
2 cups All Purpose Flour
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1 Cup Peanut Butter (smooth)
1 Cup Non-Fat Milk
1 Tablespoon Honey
1 Tablespoon Molasses
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine flour and baking powder. In another bowl, mix peanut butter and milk. Add wet mixture to dry, and mix well.
Turn out dough on a lightly floured surface and knead. Roll out to 1/4-inch thickness and cut out shapes. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake 20 minutes or until lightly brown.
Cool on a rack and store in an airtight container.
Bella was a good girl and shared some with her buddy, Spartan. 🙂
OMG I love these!! My little 4-leg friend also named Bella! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks for checking on in! I am SURE your Bella is super cute and would love these treats, too! 🙂
If you do give them a try, let me know what Bella thinks of them. 🙂
Cheers!
thanks for the recipe trying it out for my puppers
