Method

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the 1 cup of uncooked rolled oats and 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour.
1 cup Rolled Oats (uncooked), 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
Add 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce and 1 large egg to the dry ingredients.
1/4 cup Unsweetened Applesauce, 1 large Egg
Pour in 1/4 cup of water and sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
1/4 cup Water, 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Mix all ingredients together with a spoon or your hands until a firm dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon more of whole wheat flour; if too dry, add a teaspoon more of water.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Use cookie cutters to create fun fall shapes, or simply cut the dough into small squares or bite-sized pieces.
Place the shaped treats onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the treats are firm to the touch.
Let the treats cool completely on a wire rack before serving them to your dog.
