today's post has been eaten...... just a few biscuits, crumbs and the ripped remains of the paper bag remain....
the above 'mutt shot' shows the guilty ones... Dora to the left, Sampson to the right....
innocence exudes from every whisker and those moist brown eyes just beg for forgiveness..... burp, slurp and a drink of water and the evidence was almost consumed...
fortunately i'd already given a few away to Brownie and Chewy, daughter's dogs and to her 3 degu's, 2 rats and 2 ferrets.. all loved them...
my recipe isn't exact because there is no rising, no 'chemistry' beyond holding together enough to be cut out and baked...
Peanut butter, Molasses and Carob Cookies
2 cups Quinoa Flour
1 cup Kamut Flour
1/4 cup Coconut Flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1 1/2 cup Kamut flakes
2/3 cup powdered milk
1 tbsp. flax meal
3 tbsp. brewers yeast or Engevita Yeast (NOT rising yeast for bread)
1/2 cup of carob powder or 1 cup of carob chips
1 cup of peanut butter
1/2 cup of molasses
approx 1 cup of water (enough to make a semi sticky dough)
mix all together adding enough water to make a semi sticky dough....
take a cookie sheet and line with waxed paper or parchment paper put some of the dough on it and cover with another sheet of waxed paper or parchment paper... roll out approximately 1/2 inch thick (like regular cookies) and cut out with your favourite cookie cutter.. place on another cookie sheet and bake approximately 1 hr at 300 degrees.....
for a variation which i actually prefer...
bake 20 mins at 300 degrees then remove from cookie sheet and place on dehydrator racks and dry til crispy dry...
one of the reasons i used many different types of flours is because i have them.. some i have had for quite awhile and eventually they will go rancid.. so what a good way to use them up....anyways, i'm not fond of using wheat for dog treats so usually will use other types of flours such as Quinoa, coconut, barley, oat and even different bean flours...
while dehydrating my house was filled with the smell of peanut butter and molasses.. mmmmm
so i guess the proof of deliciousness is in the eating... burppppp
What A BORE(R)!

I had a large dog eat over 2 dozen bratwurst sausages I had made special to serve a group at my home.
I think it was the biggin' on the right who stole the cookies! Yum! I will have to try that recipe for my puppy pals!

Sheryl i gave you the update on the remainders.. sighhh... i wasn't gone more than 15 mins and came back to rest gone and the bag shredded.. and little missy with the most guilty look... must get a webcam!!!
I am sure you must be mistaken, such innocents could surely, never commit such a crime! :-D
cute pic : )! Reminds me of the time when the sheep flock attacked my pansy and cabbage seedlings waiting to be planted next to the garage. Happy Spring!
Queen of string.. i'm sure the 'innocent' ones agree with you..
