When they are baking, the wonderful spicy aroma of these gingerbread dog treats reminds you of gingerbread cake or cookies baking in the fall. You will love the smell of the homemade dog biscuits baking. Your dog will love them too!

Directions
I like to do things the easiest way possible, so I always make this dog treat recipe in my bread maker. You can use a mixer and make the recipe a more conventional way if you prefer.- Put all the ingredients in your bread maker in the order that your manual suggests.
- Set the bread maker for the dough setting.
- When the dough is ready, remove it and divide it into 3 portions.
- Roll each dough ball out to a thickness of ¼” or ½”—depending on the size bone you are making. The 3” bones work well at ¼” thick and the larger 5-8” bones are nice at ½” thick.
- Using bone cookie cutters, cut out the dog biscuits.
- Place them on a lightly greased baking sheet and let them rise for 30-60 minutes.
- Bake at 300 degrees F for about an hour, or until lightly browned.
- Turn off the oven and let the dog treats dry in the oven overnight.
- In the morning, check to make sure they hard and crisp. If they give when you push on them, put them in the oven for a little longer.
These dog bone treats are nice just as they are. But, for a festive holiday gift or treat, you might consider decorating your treats with a little
dog treat icing
and colored sugar or sprinkles.
