#teethingbiscuits

We originally made these as dog treats, but soon realized that Allie enjoyed them almost as much as Saul did. It’s the best because whenever Allie discards a drooly, partly eaten biscuit on the floor - viola! - it instantly transforms into a dog treat and is swiftly scarfed.

We would also like to note here, for posterity, that Audie consistently calls these “baby buns” for reasons which we don’t understand.

dog treats/ baby teething cookies

2.5 cups whole wheat pastry flour

1.5 teaspoons cinnamon

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/3 cup real peanut butter

1/3 cup Just Egg

2 tablespoons molasses

simple teething cookies (yields 12)

2 cups oat flour (can be easily made by grinding rolled oats in a blender)

1 ripe banana

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

1 tablespoon flax seed, freshly ground

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

In a mixing bowl, mash the banana. Add the coconut oil, shredded coconut, flax, vanilla, and cinnamon. Mash everything until combined. Add the oat flour and mash until a dough forms.

Separate the dough into 12 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Press each ball into an oval wafer shape that is about 4 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 1/4-inch thick.

Bake for 8 minutes, flip the cookies, and bake for 8 minutes more. Cookies should be set in the centers and very lightly browned. Cool on pan.
