Instructions
Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
Mix all of the wet ingredients together into a large bowl. Use a fork to whisk them together into a smooth batter (include the peanut butter).
Stir the rolled oats through the batter until they are coated.
Now, add the whole wheat flour and bring together to form a rough dough. It doesn't have to be smooth and will be a little sticky.
Once the dough has come together, sprinkle a clean surface with some whole wheat flour.
Tip the dough out onto the floured counter and press out with your finger tips. If the dough is sticky on top, dust it with some whole wheat flour.
Use a rolling pin to lightly roll it into a rough rectangle. It should be around ¼" thick. The dough won't rise much in the oven, so you don't want to roll it too thin.
Sprinkle the top of the dough with flour and use a cookie cutter to cut out as many pieces as you can. You can re roll the dough out to cut more pieces.
Place the pieces onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
If you would like to use pumpkin seeds, lightly brush or spray the dough with water and sprinkle on desired seeds.
Spray the biscuits lightly with olive oil.
Place dog treats into the oven and bake at 180C/350F for around 20 minutes until golden. If you feel they aren't quite baked through, you can turn them over and pop them back into the oven for 5 minutes.
Cool on a wire rack. They will crisp up a little as they cool.
