Ingredients
- Coconut oil, for brushing muffin tins (can substitute with olive oil)
- ½ lb. whole wheat pizza dough (recipe below or store-bought)
- ⅓ cup pumpkin puree (make sure it's not pumpkin pie filling)
- ½ cup shredded cheese (I recommend mozzarella or cheddar)
- ¾ cup cooked and chopped chicken breast
Whole Wheat Dough
- ¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
- ½ cup lukewarm water (105-115 degrees)
- 2 teaspoon melted coconut oil (can substitute with olive oil)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees and lightly brush mini muffin tin with coconut oil.
- Roll dough out thinly and cut out 24 circles roughly 2 inches in diameter. You can use a circle cookie cutter, a drinking glass, etc. Re-roll dough scraps when necessary.
- Gently press dough circles into the bottoms of the tin, going up the sides. If you only have a 12-cavity tin, you'll do two batches.
- Spoon about ¾ teaspoon of pumpkin puree into each dough cup. Sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of shredded cheese and a few pieces of chopped chicken.
- Put in oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and edges of dough are turning golden.
- Let cool for a bit before giving to your dog to enjoy!
Whole Wheat Dough
- Mix yeast and water in a large bowl and let rest for 2 minutes.
- Stir coconut oil and honey into the mixture.
- With a wooden spoon, mix whole wheat flour into the mixture. If dough feels too wet, you can add in another tablespoon flour. Form dough into a ball and gently knead a few times in the bowl.
- Cover bowl with a kitchen towel and let rest in a warm spot for about 2 hours, so dough can rise.
Notes
- Be sure to store these pizza treats in an airtight container in the fridge.
