Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Grease cookie sheets.
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add oil, peanut butter and egg mixture and stir
to combine. Knead the dough for 2 -3 minutes until it holds together well adding
additional broth if the dough is too stiff. Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes.
Roll dough out to about 1/2" thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut into shapes with
a knife or your favorite cookie cutter.
Place 1 inch apart on greased cookie sheets. Bake for approximately 30 minutes until
golden brown. Turn off the oven and allow the biscuits to dry in the over for 2 hours or
overnight. Once cooled they can be stored in zip lock bags.
Storing Dog Treats
In general you should store dog treats the same way you would homemade
people cookies. That being said, there are two main variables that
determine storage time - the amount and type of fat in the recipe and your
local weather conditions. If your recipe uses fats such as butter, or
meat bits or juices then it will be more prone to rancidity than a recipe
that uses some vegetable oil or shortening. Your treats may mold or
spoil much faster in humid or very hot climates.
Refrigeration and Freezing - Refrigeration will prolong the
life of more fragile dog treats. Make sure to store in a tightly sealed
container or zip lock bag. You can also freeze most treats in zip lock
freezer bags. Allow to thaw completely before use.
