Pumpkin Drop Cookies (for dogs)

In keeping with the spirit of the season:

1.5 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons applesauce
2 egg whites
1/2 cup solid-pack pumpkin (not pie filling)
1 tablespoon molasses
1/2 cup water

*Preheat oven to 400 degrees

*Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix together to a cookie dough like consistency. Drop by the teaspoonful, 1" apart, onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until cookies are firm. For harder cookies turn off the oven and let cool in the oven for 1 to 2 hours or overnight. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Thanks for this one, between you and bosleys mum I have a good variety of homemade biscuits to make for my pooches, they will be my willing taste testers before we make a big batch for our doggie friends christmas stockings. We love this one too as they love pumpkin!! :D
Lisa,

I have a whole book of recipes if you want more. There are some other threads with more recipes under general chat also. If your dogs like liver I have a liver biscotti recipe that was posted by someone else. I've made it many times and my 4 love it.
Why is this recipe only for dogs? :D
:oops: Because it was in a dog treat cookbook? It actually does sound pretty good, maybe I'll try it tomorrow instead of pumpkin pie :lol:
You know, I was thinking the same thing and just attributed it to my Stove Top style of eating! :o
I ate the sweet potato treats that Holly made for the dogs-- they were good.
Holly - do you have any other recipes that can be used with cookie cutters? :D

I spent about an hour yesterday searching the archives and finally found the one you posted back in April with the peanut butter and wheat flour. I made two batches of those and cut them into lovely Christmas shapes, then divided them into five gift bags for Beaureguard & Genevieve's canine friends.

I would love to make a "Variety Pak" for them! They loved the cookies and it was fun to do! :D

P.S. Could we make a "sticky" for dog treat recipes?
I do have more recipes but don't have them with me. If I can get online tomorrow I'll be happy to post them. I f not tomorrow I can do it Friday night.

Holly
I made the pumpkin treats. While they did smell wonderful, I didn't like the way the batter tasted. :D However, Annie certainly likes the finished product! Thanks for the recipe!
I've read numerous reports online and in dog magazines that nutmeg is toxic to dogs. please do not include it as an ingredient in dog treats.
