Crunchy Dog Biscuit

2 Cups Wheat Flour

½ Cup Nonfat Milk Powder
2 Cups Chicken Stock
6 Tablespoons Corn Oil

1 Teaspoon Salt
Extra ½ Cup Wheat Germ

Heat oven to 400 F.

Oil a large baking sheet.

Mix wheat, all purpose flour, 1 cup wheat germ, milk powder, salt, and parsley.

In another small bowl, mix stock and oil.

Combine one third of flour mix and the same of stock mix in a bowl, until well mixed. Continue adding the flour mix and stock mix to the bowl by thirds.

When all ingredients are well mixed, place dough on a dry slightly floured surface and begin kneading.

Add all purpose flour as needed until the dough is easy to handle and soft.

Take heaping tablespoon sized portions and roll them in the extra wheat germ, then place them on the oiled baking sheet with about 1 inch between them.

Flatten each ball with a fork into a biscuit shape.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked.

Turn off oven, but leave the biscuits inside until completely hard.

Keep the dog biscuits in the fridge or freezer.
