P&P Dog Biscuits (Wheat Free)

This inspiration came from the left over pumpkin I had when making pumpkin bread. My fur baby is highly allergic to wheat or anything containing wheat so I'm always on the hunt for something to satisfy those big brown eyes with a delightful wheat free treat.

I was sent this recipe by a co-worker and now one of my step-doggy's mom (Hi Cody I miss you)!

These treats are very simple and easy to make with any left over pumpkin you may have from your fall festive baking. 

Charlie's first taste!
Recipe

Pre-time: 15 mins
Servings: depends on your fur baby

Ingredients

2 TBSP Peanut Butter ( I choose Skippy)
1 Eggs
2 Cups Canned Pumpkin
3 Cups Oats

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.

Mix ingredients together in a mixing bowl. I find getting my hands in the mixture really helps to mix it all well.

Once you have a gooey dough, take out spoon fulls and roll into 1/2 inch balls, placing them onto a cookie sheet evenly spaced apart and flatten. I have also smoothed out the whole dough and use cookie cutters for this as well. 

Place in oven for 15 mins (making sure to turn once), let cool and Fido, Spot or Charlie (my baby) will enjoy!

To keep these fresh place in the fridge, they will last three times longer.

Pumpkin Bread

Fall has arrived, winter is vastly approaching and I'm bundling up in numerous layers ready to snuggle next to a fire place. The only problem, I don't have a fire place! So I bake a lot throughout the fall and winter months. It give a great heat source to the house and yummy treats to share!

One of the big hits in my house is Pumpkin Bread. Now I have to give credit where it is due, this is not my recipe. When I lived in Florida for my internship after college the family I stayed with, someone who I saw as a second mother growing up, shared this amazing recipe with me.

We both have our ways of making it, replacing this and that for our reasons, but in the end the bread is amazing and truly I swear some days its just as good as a cake.

Recipe

Pre-time: 60 mins
Servings: 8-16

Ingredients

 2 Cups Sugar
3 Eggs
1 Cup Cooking Oil
2 Cups Canned Pumpkin
3 Cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Baking Soda

1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Ground Cloves
1 cup Raisins (Optional)
