ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
¹⁄₂ cup powdered milk
¹⁄₂ cup quick-cooking oatmeal, and extra for sprinkling (not instant)
¹⁄₂ cup smooth peanut butter (I use the large jars of inexpensive generic)
2 tablespoons toasted wheat germ
1 extra large egg, lightly beaten
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash if you are so inclined
1 cup water (I use cold tap water)

directions

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
Line sheet pan/cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Use electric mixer (dough hook), mix dry ingredients including peanut butter on low speed.
Add the lightly beaten egg and 1 cup water and mix until it forms a slightly sticky ball.
Dump the dough onto a well-floured board and knead into a ball. Roll the dough out 1/2 inch thick.
Cut the dough into small squares with a pizza cutter. Or use a cookie cutter. That's more work and the dog won't care about the treat's shape. Treats from cookie cutters make nice family gifts, however.
Optional: Brush dough with egg wash and sprinkle oatmeal.
Bake in 325 degree oven for 60 minutes until completely hard.
Cool, then break up the cooked sheet into squares.
