Delight your furry friend with these homemade cheesy bacon dog treats, perfect for rewarding good behavior or just showing some love.
Combine all ingredients in the bread machine and set it to the dough cycle.
Using a bread machine ensures the dough is mixed evenly and saves time.
Once the dough cycle is complete, knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes.
Kneading helps to ensure the dough is smooth and ready for rolling.
Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness.
Use a rolling pin to achieve an even thickness for uniform baking.
Cut the dough into desired shapes using cookie cutters.
Choose fun shapes to make the treats more appealing.
Place the cut-out shapes on an ungreased baking sheet.
Leave a little space between each piece to ensure even baking.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30-40 minutes or until crisp.
Check the treats towards the end of baking to avoid overcooking.
Turn off the oven and leave the treats inside overnight to cool and crisp up.
Allowing the treats to cool in the oven ensures they are completely dry and crunchy.
