Here's a simple and healthy homemade dog treat recipe that you can try!
Peanut Butter and Banana Dog Treats
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (make sure it's free of xylitol)
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (you can substitute with oat flour for a gluten-free option)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup water (as needed)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed banana and peanut butter until smooth.
3. Gradually add the whole wheat flour and rolled oats. Mix until fully combined. You may need to add a little water if the dough is too dry.
4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently until it's smooth.
5. Roll the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness.
6. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes, or simply cut the dough into squares with a knife.
7. Place the cutouts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
8. Allow the treats to cool completely before giving them to your dog.
9. Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
Enjoy Them!
