August 26: Lizzie's Dog Biscuits

Lizzie's Dog Biscuits

Ingredients:

1 cup quick-cooking oats (not instant)
1/2 cup (2.8 oz) rice flour
1 large egg
1 (2.5 oz) jar meat-flavored baby food
2 oz water

1. Preheat the oven to 350 and place a rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick foil.
2. Mix the oats, rice flour, egg, baby food, and water together in a large mixing bowl. Press the dough about 1/4 inch thick on a piece of parchment paper. Using a small cookie cutter, cut out your favorite shapes and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. These don't spread, so you don't have to space them out very much. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the cookies and bake for another 20 minutes. Let cool completely on the pan or on a wire rack.

The only cookie cutters I have are of a baby carriage and a onesie

Thoughts: This was a very easy recipe. The only annoying part was spreading out the dough on the parchment paper because it's very sticky. It was only going to yield 18 so I doubled the recipe....and only got 19. If you use a smaller cookie cutter, you'll get more. I gave part of one to Winston and after sniffing and poking at it for a minute, he picked it up and took off. So I guess he liked it....
