Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-4 tablespoons milk or water (as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Dough: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and cinnamon, then cube the unsalted butter, mixing until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, mixing just until combined. If the dough feels too dry, add a splash of milk or water.
- Roll Out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll the dough out to about ½ inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut out fun shapes.
- Bake: Transfer the cutout treats to a lined baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let the treats cool completely before giving them to your pup.
Notes
Keep an eye on the baking time as ovens can vary. Ensure the treats cool properly for best texture.
