No one told me that creating healthy dog bones could be so entertaining. When you get your hands dirty making homemade treats, your puppy will beg you to stop. Put an end to those expensive store-bought sweets and welcome to delicious, handcrafted goodies.
Peanut butter will be our first topic of discussion. Dogs also absolutely adore it, so it’s not only a human favorite. Begin with 2 eggs, 1/2 cup peanut butter, and 2 cups whole wheat flour. Adding a quarter cup of water is where things start to get interesting. Spread the dough out on your counter, stir until it becomes doughy, and then cut out shapes. About twenty minutes at 350°F will do the trick. Well done! See the joy radiate from those open eyes.
Next, there are pumpkin-themed sweets. In a large mixing bowl, combine two tablespoons of natural peanut butter, half a cup of canned pumpkin, and two cups of whole wheat flour. Mix well. Roll the men into balls and bake them for half an hour. In addition to being delicious, these treats are good for your dog’s health.
The time has come to unleash our imaginations with banana biscuits. Have you ever given a dog mashed banana? It will be to their delight! Combine a ripe banana, a scoop of peanut butter, and one cup of oat flour. Take it out of the fridge, roll it out, and cut out some cool pieces. Banana heaven, baked for 25 minutes at 300°F.
Want to know what’s up? Combination of oats and your dog’s preferred canned sardines (ideally in water) is the best option. This is an exciting canine culinary journey. Shape it, mash it until well combined, then bake until crisp. Just so you know, those fishy smells can make you question your initial decision.
Feeling daring? Sweet potato adds a twist. Mash it after boiling, then mix it with few eggs and oats. A touch of cinnamon transforms ordinary snacks into ones that are fit for barking. Oh my!
Putting aside your taste buds, remember to consult your veterinarian before feeding your pet any new ingredients. You will be appreciated by your beloved pet’s stomach. Now is the time to put on your apron, dust yourself with flour, and start chopping. Wishing you a joyous baking season and delicious treats for your furry friend!
