Thanks Erin and Tom and Ginger for some new recipes. Not at all unconventional in my house! I make biscuits for some 4 legged friends of mine and I have used Lee's recipes with success -

DOUBLE GINGER DOG BISCUITS

2 ½ c Whole wheat flour
½ c powdered milk
½ t salt
½ c butter
1 T sugar
2 T ground ginger
3 T chopped crystallized ginger
1 egg
½ c water

Put first seven ingredients into food processor, pulse until mixture looks like cornmeal. Add egg and water, process until dough forms a ball (you may need a little more water).

Roll to 1/3 Â 1/2 inch thick on floured board, cut to desired shapes, gather together and re-roll scraps. Place on cookie sheet with non stick foil on it or spray sheet with Pam.

Bake at 350º for 30-35 minutes until firm and dried out. For biscuits to keep well they must be baked until dry and hard. You can also leave them overnight in the oven with door ajar to dry out further.

2 c Whole wheat flour
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
½ c bacon fat
2 c shredded cheddar cheese
4 strips cooked bacon cut in small pieces
1 egg

Put first three ingredients into food processor, pulse until mixture looks like cornmeal. Add remaining ingredients and process until dough forms a ball.

Roll to 1/3 Â 1/2 inch thick on floured board, cut to desired shapes, gather together and re-roll scraps. Place on cookie sheet with non stick foil on it or spray sheet with Pam.
