Butternut Squash Dog Treat Recipe

Step 1

Bake butternut squash (cut in half and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 mins) and allow to cool. Scrape out butternut squash flesh and place in bowl and mix.

Step 3

Grind flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, and oats. Add to butternut squash mix.

Step 4

Add peanut butter and cinnamon to squash mix.

Step 5

Mix the ingredients together, and then use hands until mixture is thoroughly incorporated into a dough ball.

Step 6

Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper and flatten out the dough ball.

Step 7

Once flattened, use a rolling pin to roll out mixture to 1/4" thick.

Step 8

Use dog-themed cookie cutter to cut out treats.

Step 9

Place a clean parchment paper onto a cookie tray.

Step 10

Place treats on the covered cookie tray.

Step 11

Bake for 18-20 minutes, depending upon your oven and the texture your dog likes.

Step 12

Remove from oven and allow to cool. Store in the refrigerator for a week. Can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months - but they won't last that long!
