Easy To Make Dog Recipes – Homemade Dog Treat Recipe

Dog treats can be used for many things other than just spoiling your dog. It can help with his training, reward for good behavior or a way to keep him calm in times of anxiety or fear.

There are many recipes available and even more commercial brands selling them.

But we found it very rewarding to make our own, making sure we know what they’re eating and that these treats are the healthy and fresh.

2 3/4 cups (372 grams) whole wheat flour
1 cup (75 grams) wheat germ
1/2 cup (43 grams) ground flax seed

1/2 cup (106 grams) olive oil
1/2 cup (122 grams) unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup (122 grams) pumpkin puree

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two large baking sheets with parchment (or grease with cooking spray).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, wheat germ, and flax seed. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, olive oil, applesauce, pumpkin, and honey until smooth.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly combined. Form the dough into a disc.
