- 3/4 cup cooked sweet potato puree or canned pumpkin puree
- 1/3 cup water
Instructions:

- In a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter, sweet potato puree and water. Add to flour mixture and stir until combined.
- Turn dough onto a lightly-floured surface and knead until it comes together. Roll dough to ¼ in. thickness and cut with desired cookie cutter.
- Place treats on an ungreased cookie sheet, ½ in. apart, and bake 19 to 22 minutes (for smaller 1 in. cookies) or 25 to 28 minutes (for larger 3 in. cookies).

Notes:
- Be sure to check that all the ingredients purchased do not contain xylitol, which is toxic to dogs
- If possible, use organic dried cranberries, which generally have less added sugar than other brands
- Treats should be fed to dogs with plenty of fresh water
- If you have any questions about any of the ingredients used, please contact your veterinarian
