We hope you enjoyed the peanut butter banana oatmeal cookies last week! This week we are going to be tackling a dog treat recipe that is easy to make at home. These cookies are exclusively for your dog (not for human consumption) although the ingredients are safe for humans, the flavor is catered towards your furry friends palette. But hey if you end up eating a few of the treats… we don’t blame you. You should already have all of the ingredients you will need in your pantry.
Pro-tip: your pet will love you even more if you let them lick the mixing bowls to help with cleanup!
