Homemade deliciousness your dog will devour (just don’t spoil it by telling him how inexpensive and easy this recipe is). Makes approximately 100 one-inch square treats.
INGREDIENTS
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup water or low sodium chicken stock or the water from canned tuna
6 tablespoons bacon fat, melted (save your bacon grease!)
4 cups whole wheat flour
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
Beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in milk, water, and bacon fat until well blended. Gradually stir in flour to make a stiff dough. Roll out dough to 1/4” thickness and cut out with a pizza cutter or cookie cutter of your desired size and shape.Regardless of your dog’s size, small is always good. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes for a softer cookie or 30 minutes for a crisper cookie. Cool on racks, then store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Freeze those that won’t be consumed in two weeks time to keep them nice and fresh.
Tip
You know what they say about too much of a good thing. Bacon fat, in smaller amounts, such as that in these cookies, adds a flavour dogs love. Too much—like a whole can of drippings—can cause pancreatitis and land your dog in the vet or worse. Remember, treats are just that, treats. Treat accordingly.
