  • 1 Tbsp Flaxseed ground - 10g

  • ½ Tbsp Honey 11g
  • 1 Banana mashed - 100g
  • 1 Cup Oat Flour 96g

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 300°F / 149°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Add the flaxseed egg to the peanut butter mixture and stir to combine.
  • Mix in the oat flour with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until mostly combined and some streaks of flour remain. Next, mix in the wheat flour until combined. You may need to knead the dough with your hands to incorporate the flour.
  • Roll out the dough to 1/4" thickness on a clean surface or parchment paper. Use your cookie cutter to cut out cookie shapes, and lay them on the prepared baking sheet about 1/2" apart.
  • Grab any remaining dough scraps, form them into a ball, and roll them out again. Use the cookie cutter to cut out the desired shapes. Repeat until all dough is used up. Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let them cool completely before serving them to your pup.
