Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Mix peanut butter and mashed sweet potatoes together until well combined.

- Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out treats and place on cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
- Cool slightly on the cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Allergies? No problem!
If your dog can’t eat wheat, you can easily swap out the flour for an allergy-friendly flour, such as coconut flour, rice flour, or pea flour.
