Banana + Yogurt Dog Treats

Ingredients
  

  • 1 very ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup plain unsweetened Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup lard
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

Equipment

  • Dog bone cookie cutter

Method
 

  1. Place the bananas in a large bowl and mash until smooth. Add the yogurt, lard, and baking soda and mix well.
  2. Stir in the oats. Add the flour, a half cup at a time, until the dough is too stiff to stir. Then knead in the remaining flour.
  3. Next, roll the dough out about a centimeter thick on a flat surface, lightly coated in flour. Use a cookie cutter to cut out treats the shape and size you desire.
  4. Spritz a cookie sheet with oil and lay your treats out on it. Bake at 350°F until the edges turn golden brown, about 12-20 minutes.
