Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 3/4 cup chicken or beef broth
• 1 large egg
• 3 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 1/3 cup rolled oats
• 1/3 cup bran cereal
• 1/4 cup powdered milk
• 3 tbsp. Parmesan cheese
• 1 garlic clove, finely minced
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast
• Rolling pin
• Cookie cutter
• 2 oiled baking sheets
• Wire rack

1. Place all the ingredients in a bread machine according to the directions included with it.

2. Turn the bread machine on the dough cycle, and let the machine knead the dog biscuit dough.

3. When the dough finishes kneading, place it on a lightly floured surface and roll it to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut the dough into shapes with a cookie cutter.

4. Place the dog biscuits on the oiled baking sheets and let them rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.

5. Bake the dog biscuits in a preheated 325 degree F. oven until they're brown and firm--about 30 minutes.

6. Remove the dog biscuits from the cookie sheet and let them cool and harden on wire racks, or turn the oven off and let the biscuits cool overnight.

7. Store the dog biscuits in an airtight container.
