HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA DOG TREATS

I normally just go out and just by my dogs, Dog-treats from the stores. But I noticed the last time how sick they had gotten after eaten them. So I wanted to try something different and something that is better for them. So I looked online and I found this recipe and not only did my dogs love this but my Cats did too.


Ingredients:
1 banana, peeled
1 cup Oat-Flour
2/3 cup Rolled oats
1/2 cup Dried-parsley
3 tablespoons Peanut-Butter
1 egg beaten


Directions:

Preheat oven to 300°F. Put the banana in a large bowl and use a spoon or potato masher to mash it thoroughly. Add oat flour, oats, parsley, peanut butter and egg and stir well to combine. Set aside for 5 minutes.


Roll mixture into 24 balls, using about 1 tablespoon dough for each; transfer to a large parchment paper-lined baking sheet as done. Use the back of a spoon or the heel of your hand to press each ball into a (1 1/2- to 2-inch) coin. Bake until firm and deep golden brown on the bottom, 40 to 45 minutes. Set aside to let cool completely.


Storage note: It's best to store these in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Or, freeze them to give to your pal later; just be sure to thaw the treats before handing them out.


These will look like Cookies when they are done. So make sure your Kids and your Parents don't try to eat these. Both my son and my mom ate one without me knowing about it and they both told me that my cookies were nasty. I had to tell them, yeah they are nasty because it's not for humans it's for the dogs. So I had to laugh at them. Too bad I didn't catch them eating it or I would have taken a picture of them doing so.
