Oatmeal and Rye Biscuits

A spin on cooking with Sarah, we bring you cooking with Sarah for super spoiled puppy dogs.

Ingredients

1 cup oatmeal
1 cup rye flour
2 tbl sugar
1 tbl butter or margerine
1/2 cup milk


Mix all ingredients. Cover with Saran Wrap and chill for 1 hour. Roll dough out to 1/4 in. thickness and cut into your favorite dog themed shape, including bones and fire hydrants. Bake at 350F for 15 min. Turn off the oven and allow to cool in oven prior to storing in an airtight container. Use as bribery for furry creatures that bark in the night.






Verdict: Success, as shown by the eager look of where is treat no. 2 after the devouring of treat no. 1. Not that they are particularly picky so far as these things go... However -- wheat free and corn free for those who have issue with those particular grains. We'll be doing a double batch after I re-stock on oatmeal. After all, the puppy cookie jar is an important part of our kitchen.

So is it wrong that I would like to try a hydrant with a schmear of veggie/onion cream cheese for myself?

Not so wrong.. The seem like they ought to be people friendly -- I considered a nibble myself. These treats were a little crunchy for joe and jane human though.

I think it is a wonderful that before you leave the girls for New England you made them extra special treats!

The girls never turn down treats -- thats for sure. They aren't the 'unskinny girls' for a reason :) They adore the homeade ones so much more than the pre-packaged. I don't blame them.
