Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and arrange two racks—one above the middle rack and one below.
2
In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, oil, peanut butter, graham wafer crumbs, milk, wheat germ, natural bran, cracked wheat, and oats. Mix using a dough hook until thoroughly combined.
3
Gradually add the whole wheat flour, mixing continuously, until the dough is stiff enough to handle.
4
Roll the dough into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
5
Place the balls on a large cookie sheet, flattening each slightly with the bottom of a glass or with your fingers.
6
Position the cookie sheet on the top oven rack and bake for 90 minutes. Halfway through, flip each biscuit over to ensure even browning.
7
After 90 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 225°F (110°C).
8
Bake for an additional 45 minutes, checking occasionally for doneness and rotating the cookie sheets if using two.
9
To test if the biscuits are done, remove one from the oven and allow it to cool. Break it apart and check for a crisp, hard texture similar to store-bought dog biscuits.
10
Once fully baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool completely.
11
Store the biscuits in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
