Peanut Butter Dog Treats – A Tail-Wagging Favorite

 

Introduction

 

If there’s one flavor dogs go wild for, it’s peanut butter. And the good news? You can whip up a batch of these easy peanut butter dog treats with just a few pantry staples — no preservatives, no additives, just natural goodness made with love. Perfect for rewarding good behavior, celebrating a special day, or just saying “I love you” the canine way.

 

These treats are not only budget-friendly and easy to make, they’re also packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats. And since you’re in control of every ingredient, they’re a much safer alternative to store-bought biscuits that may contain unnecessary fillers or chemicals.

 

 

 

Ingredients:

 

1 cup creamy peanut butter (unsalted, xylitol-free)

 

1 egg

 

½ ripe banana, mashed

 

1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional for natural sweetness)

 

1 cup whole wheat flour

 

 

> Note: Always use peanut butter that is free of xylitol — an artificial sweetener that is toxic to dogs.

 

 

 

 

 

Instructions:

 

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

 

 

2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the banana, then stir in the peanut butter, egg, and maple syrup until fully combined.

 

 

3. Gradually mix in the flour, kneading into a soft dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour.

 

 

4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼-inch thickness.

 

 

5. Use cookie cutters (bone shapes are fun!) to cut out treats and place them on the baking sheet.

 

 

6. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

 

 

7. Cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.
