- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, unsweetened applesauce, and honey (if using) until well combined.1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter, 1/4 cup Unsweetened Applesauce, 1 tablespoon Honey
- Crack the egg into the wet ingredients and whisk until thoroughly incorporated.1 Egg
- Gradually add the cooked rolled oats to the mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms. It should be firm enough to handle.1 cup Rolled Oats
- Take small portions of the dough and roll them into ropes, about 1/2 inch thick and 4-5 inches long, resembling chew sticks. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chew sticks are golden brown and firm to the touch. For a crunchier chew, you can bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chew Sticks cool completely on a wire rack before offering them to your dog.
