Dog Treats

cup brown rice flour

tablespoon creamy peanut butter

egg

1/4

cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)

teaspoon dried parsley

teaspoon ground cinnamon

Toppings

1/2

cup carob chips

tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Heat oven to 300°F. In large bowl, stir Dog Treat ingredients until soft dough forms.
Divide dough in half. Using brown rice-floured rolling pin, roll each half to 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick on brown rice-floured surface. Cut with 1 1/2-inch round cutter. On ungreased cookie sheet, place cutouts about 1 inch apart. Use fingers to press paw print indents in cookies.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until dry and golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
In small microwavable bowl, microwave carob chips and peanut butter uncovered on High 30 to 45 seconds or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Spoon into resealable food-storage plastic bag. Use kitchen scissors to cut 1/8-inch hole in corner of bag. Squeeze bag to pipe carob mixture in paw indents of cookies. Allow cookies to stand at room temperature about 1 hour or until carob mixture is set.
Store in dog treat jar at room temperature up to 3 weeks.

Check with your vet to make sure that these dog treats fit into your dog's diet. Be sure to check the recipe for any known foods or ingredients your dog may be allergic to.

Be sure to use carob chips--chocolate is harmful to canines.

For longer storage, store these dog treats tightly covered in the refrigerator or freezer.

For a gift for all of your four-legged friends, put together a bag of these crunchy cookies and a new squeaky toy—they'll love it!
