- 1 banana
- 1/3 cup peanut butter

INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat, set aside.
- Add oats to the bowl of a food processor.
- Let machine run for 2 - 3 minutes, until oats are almost flour consistency with a few big pieces left.
- Add peanut butter, banana and egg to food processor.
- Mix until dough looks uniform.
- Turn the dough out onto the countertop.
- If the dough is too sticky to work with - sprinkle the countertop with a tablespoon or two of flour, and work some of the flour from the counter into the dough until it is no longer sticky.
- Roll the dough out to roughly 1/8" thick.
- Cut treats out with cookie cutter and place on baking sheet. Bake for 16 - 18 minutes, rotate trays halfway through.
- Cool completely before giving to your dog.
DOGS WITH DENTAL ISSUES OR SENIOR DOGS
You can bake treats for 14 - 16 minutes for a softer treat. Make sure treats are baked all the way through before removing tray from oven.
You can use the smallest cookie cutter in the set (2") and the recipe will make 90.
If you use a larger cutter, you will obviously have fewer treats.
