Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degree F.

Mix the pumpkin, softened coconut oil, and water together in a large bowl.

Then mix in the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.

Mix it a bit and then stir in the egg.

Continue to stir until it’s ALL combined. This might take a few minutes and feel free to add a touch more water in order to get all of the mixture into one solid, slightly sticky ball.

Once done, roll the dough out on a floured surface to ~1/4 inch thick.

Using a cookie cutter, cut out treats. These can be as small or as large as you want them (depending on the size of your dogs. I realize not everyone has giant dogs like me)

Place prepared dough treats on a lined or greased baking sheet and bake for ~30 minutes (depending on size) or until dough has hardened.

Let cool and enjoy your pups excitement!

Notes

***If you don’t cook these treats until they’re totally dry and hard (like a traditional dog biscuit) then you need to store these in the refrigerator! Either way, it wouldn’t hurt to put them in the fridge to store them.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Coconut Oil Temperature Control 🌡️
Use melted coconut oil at room temperature to prevent it from solidifying when mixed with other ingredients, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
Pumpkin Puree Moisture Balance 💧
If your pumpkin puree is watery, drain it through cheesecloth for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture and prevent overly soft biscuits that won't crisp up properly.
Leavening Agent Ratio 🧪
Use baking soda and baking powder in the correct 1:3 ratio as written to achieve the perfect rise and texture—too much will create an unpleasant soapy taste your dog won't enjoy.
Egg Binding Technique 🥚
Lightly beat the egg before adding it to the dry ingredients to distribute moisture evenly, creating a cohesive dough that holds together without being sticky.
Strategic Cooling for Optimal Crunch 🍪
Cool biscuits completely on a wire rack after baking to allow residual moisture to escape, resulting in the perfect crunch that dogs love and that promotes dental health.
