- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment and set them aside. In a large bowl, whisk together peanut butter, honey, oil and chicken broth until smooth. Pour in the flours and oatmeal. Mix until combined.
- Add some flour to your work surface. Turn the dough out onto the work surface and roll the dough until it's about 1/4-inch thick.
- Using a small bone cookie cutter (or any other shape you have), stamp out the cookies. My cookie cutter was a 5-inch bone-shaped cookie cutter. If you have a small dog, feel free to use a 2"-inch bone-shapped cookie cutter. Use a small bone
- Stamp out as many cookies as your cutter allows and transfer to the cookies to the prepared baking sheet.
- Roll up the leftover scraps and re-roll it. Cut out as many as possible. Bake the cookies for 14-16 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack. Store them in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
