Snickerpoodles!

So I had to make snickerpoodles since I'm the proud owner of a poodle. :) 

Ingredients:
2.5 cups all-purpose flour
12 ounces applesauce (no sugar added)
3/4 cup oatmeal
1/4 cup cornmeal
2 tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Tools:
Rolling pin (preferably non-stick)
Cookie cutter (preferably a poodle!)
Large bowl
Cookie Sheet.



Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

2. Mix all ingredients thoroughly in a large bowl.

3. Roll out dough on a floured surface until it is about 1/4 inch thick.  Use your cookie cutter to cut out shapes and place on a foiled-lined cookie sheet.



4. Bake for 30-35 minutes.  Makes about 3 dozen snickerpoodles if you have a smallish cookie cutter.  Remember to cool completely before sharing with your pup!



5. Refridgerate in an air-tight container.

If you look around the internet for snickerpoodle recipes, you'll probably notice that most have a lot more vegetable oil and no applesauce.  However, just like you can substitute apple sauce for oil in human recipes, you can for dog recipes as well!  It makes them a lot healthier and, I'd imagine, more tastey.
