Frozen Dog Treats Recipe
Cool off your dog with a Frozen Dog Treats Recipe made from creamy yogurt, peanut butter, banana, and optional blueberries for variety.
Equipment
- Blender or food processor
- Mixing bowl
- Silicone molds or ice cube trays
- Measuring cups and spoons.
- Freezer
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt unsweetened, no xylitol
- ½ cup natural peanut butter xylitol-free
- 1 ripe banana
- ¼ cup water or unsweetened coconut water
Optional Ingredients:
- ¼ cup blueberries
- ¼ cup strawberries hulled
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin purée plain, not pie filling
- 1 tablespoon honey optional, for adult dogs
Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
- Peel the banana and gather all your ingredients. This is a good moment to double-check labels—especially peanut butter—to make sure everything is dog-safe.
Step 2: Blend Until Smooth
- Add yogurt, peanut butter, banana, and liquid to a blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks that could freeze unevenly.
Step 3: Add Optional Mix-Ins
- If using berries or pumpkin, pulse them in briefly or stir them in for a bit of texture. The mixture should be thick but pourable.
Step 4: Fill the Molds
- Carefully pour the mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays. Tap gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
Step 5: Freeze Solid
- Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 3–4 hours, or until fully solid. Once frozen, pop them out and store in an airtight container.
