Basic Dog Biscuits

  • 2 1/2 c Whole wheat flour
  • 1 ts Sugar
  • 1 ts Salt
  • 6 tb Margarine
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 c Skim milk
  • 1/4 c Creamy peanut butter
  • 2 ts water, cold (approx.)
  • 2 Egg whites lightly beaten
  • Sesame seeds (optional)

1. Combine flour, sugar and salt. With a pastry blender or a fork, cut in the margarine until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

2. Beat egg in a small bowl. Stir in milk and peanut butter (mixture will be lumpy). Add egg mixture to flour mixture; stir. Stir in the water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dough forms a ball.

3. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough for 3 minutes. Roll dough out to a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into desired shapes with a cookie cutter. Brush with beaten egg whites and, if desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds.

4. Bake in a preheated 350'F oven until firm and golden, about 30 minutes.
