Basic Dog Biscuits

 


Mix together
3 1/2 cup unbleached flour,
2 cup whole wheat flour,
1 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup skim milk powder
1 tablespoon (or 1 package) dry yeast
3 1/2 cups lukewarm chicken or meat broth

Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm chicken or meat broth. A rich broth is recommended because it gives more flavor to the biscuit and also make them enjoyable to even the most finicky of tastes.  Let yeast broth mixture set 10 min. Then stir in flour mixture. Roll resulting dough out 1/4" thick. Now, cut the biscuits from the dough, you can use any shape that you want, but most of us doggies like the traditional bone shape.  Brush biscuits with egg wash. Bake on greased cookie sheets at 300° for 45 min. Then turn off oven and leave in overnight to finish hardening.  This will make about 60 medium sized biscuits.
