Homemade Pumpkin Applesauce Dog Treats

These homemade pumpkin applesauce dog treats are simple, lightly fruity, and easy to bake with a few basic ingredients. I combine plain pumpkin puree, unsweetened applesauce, egg, and oat flour to make a soft dough that cuts easily into small biscuits for everyday rewards or training sessions.
