Here's one....has an awful lot of honey though..
Snickerpoodles Dog Treats
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup honey
2 eggs
3 3/4 cups white flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 teaspoons cinnamon
Mix vegetable oil, shortening and honey together until smooth. Add eggs and beat well. Blend in flour, baking soda and cream of tartar. Knead dough until mixed well. Shape dough by rounded teaspoons into balls. Mix the cornmeal and cinnamon together in a bowl and roll balls in mixture. Place 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with a nonstick spray. Press the balls down with a fork twice going in 2 different directions or press with your favorite stamp. Bake 8 minutes at 400. Remove from baking sheet and cool on a rack.
And here are more....which are a bit more trouble:
What the doggies like is garlic and meat paste. I make my own meat paste, from leftover pot roast and canned beef broth, in the food
processor. For the picky-est of the picky eaters try cheese or cheese-and-bacon.
What you're going for is a thick, non-fluffy, very heavy dough that smells strongly like meat and garlic. And a low oven temperature, to
bake them hard and long-lasting.
BASIC RECIPE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, or any combination of heavy, whole-grain flours
1/2 cup nonfat powdered milk
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. Lawry's Seasoned Salt
1 large egg
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/2 cup hot meat paste (see notes above)
1/4 to 1/2 cup very hot water
Mix together well with an electric mixer. Turn out onto a floured pastry cloth and knead until elastic and "set." Cut with dog-bone
cutter, or with the edge of a drinking glass. Spray cookies sheets with Pam and place biscuits on them. They will not spread at all,
so you can place them very close together. Bake at 250 degrees F. for one hour, turn trays 180 degrees, and bake at least another
half hour.
FOR CHEESE BISCUITS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you know that you're going to be making doggie treats, save up all the hard bits of leftover cheese. Grate them up and use them, in
place of the meat paste. If you do not have leftover cheese, then buy a bag of Kraft grated cheese, sharp cheddar, and use that.
Once the biscuits are on the cookie trays, you can sprinkle them with grated Parmesan.
FOR CHEESE-AND-BACON ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Add Hormel's Real Bacon Bits (they're in the salad dressing section of your grocery store)
