Holiday Pup-kin Spice Cookies: A Tail-Wagging Treat
No holiday celebration is complete without indulging in delicious nibbles, especially dog-approved ones! Here’s an easy-to-make recipe packed with paw-friendly ingredients that will have your pup eagerly wagging their tail in anticipation of a tasty holiday treat.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (ensure it’s xylitol-free)
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix flour and oats in a large bowl.
- Whisk applesauce, pumpkin puree, peanut butter, egg, and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
- Gradually blend the wet mixture into the dry ingredients to form a dough.
- Roll out the dough and use cookie cutters for festive shapes.
- Place cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool completely before treating your dog.
Keeping Your Dog Clean and Crumb-Free
With the kitchen hustle and the flurry of baking, your dog might end up wearing some of the ingredients. Here are some tips to keep your four-legged friend clean and tidy:
- Regular Brushing: Regular grooming sessions help remove any food particles or loose fur. This not only keeps their coat looking great but also prevents crumbs from getting trapped.
- Wipe Downs: After a baking session, use a damp cloth or pet wipes to gently clean your dog’s face, especially around the mouth and beard (if they have one). This quick clean-up can save you from a full bath later.
- Dining Bibs or Bandanas: If your dog is a particularly enthusiastic eater, consider a festive bib or bandana during feeding times. It’s a cute way to catch any food spills and keep their coat clean.
- Training for Patience: While it’s tempting to give in to those puppy-dog eyes, training your dog to wait patiently for treats can prevent them from diving headfirst into the baking bowl. Reward them with these homemade treats for good behavior.
