Gingerbread Dog Treats

 Ingredients:

1 cup molasses or raw unfiltered honey
1 3/4 cup filtered water
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
6 cups gluten free flour (Buckwheat, Tapioca etc)
2 teaspoons aluminum free baking soda
1 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger or one tsp. of dried powder ginger

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Combine the molasses, water, and oil in a medium bowl.

In another large bowl mix the flour, the baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Combine well.

Cover and refrigerate for an hour or overnight.

After the dough is well-chilled roll it out into a 1/4" thickness. Cut dough with a cookie cutter into gingerbread men or other fun shapes.

The dough will rise.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Turn oven down to 325 and bake another 3-5 minutes.

Makes about 40 treats.
