The holiday season is a time of joy, love and giving, which includes our furry companions. Why not surprise your dog this year with very special holiday treats made with love and care? This easy recipe will delight your pet while allowing you to offer healthy treats without added artificial ingredients.

Ingridients:

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup oatmeal
• 1/2 cup grated apple (without seeds and stems)
• 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 egg
• 2 spoons of honey
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Preparing the oven: Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius.
2. Mixing the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, oatmeal and cinnamon.
3. Preparation of the wet ingredients: In another bowl, combine the grated apple, pumpkin puree, egg, honey and coconut oil. Mix well to obtain a homogeneous mixture.
4. Combining the two mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until you have a dough that holds together evenly.
5. Shape the treats: Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface, then use cookie cutters or a knife to cut out festive shapes like stars, Christmas trees or circles.
6. Bake: Place the treats on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Cool: After the treats are finished baking, let them cool on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Storage: Store holiday treats in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Do not forget about the limited shelf life, as the treats are freshly prepared without preservatives.

Your dog will love the taste of these holiday treats, and you'll be happy that you're offering him something tasty and healthy at the same time. Enjoy the holiday season with your furry friend!
