One of the best parts of the holiday season is sharing fun traditions with family and friends. Baking cookies and leaving them out for Santa never gets old! This year, don’t forget to include your puppy in your holiday rituals by making some dog-friendly treats for them to enjoy!

The only ingredients you need for these cookies are all-natural peanut butter, a couple of eggs, whole wheat flour, and water. It’s that simple! Mix all four ingredients in a bowl to form the dough. Add water as needed until you achieve the right consistency. Then bake the cookies in the oven on high for a few minutes or until cooked through.

Want to make your cookie recipe extra festive? Add a little cinnamon and use cookie cutters in fun holiday shapes!

These cookies are perfect for dogs and good enough for Santa’s reindeer, so don’t forget to leave them out on Christmas Eve with a glass of milk for every animal to enjoy!

Dog Christmas Cookie Recipe 

Ingredients 

  • 2 ½ cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 eggs
