Doggie Gratitude!

The advantage of having a furry friend is that they like your cooking even if you burn their favorite batch of biscuits. 

When I was vending at the farmer's markets in Peculiar, MO and at the Brookside Farmer's Market in Kansas City, MO - I was careful to make the biscuits look edible for humans.  If a batch didn't look like something I would want to eat, it would go to the dogs . . . literally.  This is a treat that was burnt to a crisp but my dear sweet Onyx and Poppy eat them because they like my cooking.  Well, Poppy ate them eagerly and Onyx ate them reluctantly . . . trying to be polite:~)  


Oatmeal Peanut Butter Recipe (but don't burn em):

1/4 C       Organic Peanut Butter
1/4 C       Organic Canola Oil
1/2 C       Filtered Water
1/4 C       Organic Oat Bran
1-1/2 C    Organic Oat Flour (in the summer use Barley flour)
1/4 C       Honey
1 Tsp       Baking Powder

Mix all ingredients well.  Use a small ice cream scoop to make even cookies for your baby(ies).  Put on an ungreased baking dish.  Take a fork and press down.  Bake at 325 degrees for about 15 to 20 minutes or longer depending on your oven (being careful not to burn them:~)  Let cool and serve them with love!  

Special Note:  I try to use organic ingredients as much as I can.  However, we live in a food desert so going to the grocery store is not as easy as making a quick trip around the corner ... unless going to Quick Trip.
