Every year I make homemade dog biscuits for our four-legged friends and family and today was the day. These bones and fire hydrants will be packaged up for all my favorite canines in the family {and a couple in the neighborhood}. They’re always a huge hit and I look forward to gifting them each year!
I like to use different recipes all the time. After all, I’m sure even dogs appreciate a bit of variety {wink}.
This recipe is simple, requiring only a few common ingredients that you likely already have in the pantry.
Simple Dog Biscuit Recipe
1 cup all purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups boiling water
4 bouillon cubes
3 tablespoons vegetable oil {I used peanut oil for a little added flavor}
1 teaspoon baking powder
{As with any recipe for your pet, check with your vet before introducing any food into your pet’s diet.}
Mix all ingredients. Roll out 1/4″ thick on floured surface {you may have to knead extra flour into the dough at this point to prevent sticking}. Cut with cookie cutters in desired shapes. Bake at 350 degrees for half an hour. Let set overnight.

Whoof!
I have never baked for my canine, but this needs to be done. Thank you! Or better yet, he thanks you!
I need to try this out this year. I looked at it last year & never did get it done! Thanks for the reminder!! 🙂
how long are these good for?
They’ll last for at least a month in an airtight container. I’ve had them last longer since they don’t have anything that will really spoil. Be sure to cook them so they’re hard and not soft.
