Easy 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Bone Biscuit

Easy & Fun Dog Cookie Recipe

(100% dog-safe, holds clean bone shapes without spreading)

Prep time: 10 mins | Bake time: 18–25 mins | Makes: ~20–30 biscuits (depending on cutter size)

Ingredients:

2 cups wholemeal flour (or rolled oats blended into oat flour for sensitive tummies)
1/2 cup natural peanut butter (Must be 100% peanuts—strictly check that it is xylitol/birch sugar-free and contains no added salt or sugar)
1/2 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree or mashed ripe banana
2–4 tbsp water (only as needed to bring the dough together)

Instructions:

Preheat oven: Heat oven to 175°C (160°C fan-forced) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
Make the dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, natural peanut butter, and pumpkin (or banana). If the dough feels too crumbly, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until a firm, pliable ball forms.
Roll: Lightly dust your bench with a little extra flour. Roll out the dough to about 5–6 mm thick (thinner makes crunchy treats; slightly thicker makes softer biscuits).
Cut: Press the bone cutters firmly into the dough, give a slight wiggle, and place the cut-outs onto your baking tray. Gather scraps, re-roll, and repeat.
Bake:

For regular treats: Bake for 18–20 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
For crunchy, long-lasting treats: Bake for 25 minutes, then turn the oven off and leave the biscuits inside with the door slightly ajar for another 30–45 minutes to dehydrate.

If customers want to pipe or frost details onto the baked bones:

Ingredients: 2 tbsp plain Greek yoghurt mixed with 1 tbsp smooth natural peanut butter (or pure tapioca starch mixed with a splash of water for a hard-setting white "royal icing" glaze).
Dip the baked bones or pipe directly on top!
