Peanut Butter Pennies

I feel a little like...bakerella! I searched online for a recipe to make some dog treats for Bruno. My goal is to make them tiny (he's not getting any smaller) and peanut butter flavored. I found this recipe for peanut butter dog biscuits and thought I'd try it. It only has four ingredients and I want to avoid sugar, because they make him very sick!

All you have to do is mix the four ingredients together, roll out the dough and then cut it into shapes. Since I want them tiny, I am using an apple corer as my cookie cutter.
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth
  • 1 1/4 cups hot water

Bake them at 350° F for 40 minutes. I only baked mine for 20 minutes due to their small size.

Bruno loves his peanut butter pennies!

Bruno Goes to Washington - the National Mall

Day Three in Maryland and not even the drizzle can keep Bruno from the White House!

Bruno was a celebrity in his own right...there were no other dogs around and lots of people were stopping to look at him and photograph him. One person even filmed some video! Hasn't anyone seen a Dalmatian before?

Mom and Bruno - Washington Monument





Outside the WWII Memorial...Lincoln Memorial...really, really, REALLY wanting to chase a squirrel!


The White House....can't get closer due to the preparations for the upcoming State Dinner.

After all of that excitement, it is time for a nap with Mom!



After nap time, Molly will be done teaching school, so it is back to her house this evening!
