A few of the "Ginger Yaps"
The children helped me cut out all different shapes. JD said they smelled really good and asked if people could eat them. I said yes, but I didn't know if he would like them. Well...he tried one and decided that the dogs shouldn't have them! ROFL! So I told him I would make him some "people ones" soon
5 cups whole wheat flour (I used fresh ground, organic)
1 ½ Tbsp baking soda
1 tbsp ground ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
¾ c applesauce
¾ c molasses
½ c honey
¼ c vegetable oil
1 egg.
Mix all ingredients together and then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead dough until it is stiff. (I probably added another cup of flour in the kneading.) Roll out to ¼ inch thick and cut with cookie cutters. Place on a cookie sheet and put into a preheated 375 degree oven.
Bake for 8 minutes and turn oven off, keeping oven door closed. Let treats sit in the oven until hard, 1-2 hours.
Here is where they sat while I was making these.
"What!? Did you say Dog treats!?!?!?!?!"
My doggies got a taste of these, and have not left me alone since! Griff keeps sitting at the kitchen door staring at me with those big brown eyes ;-)
