Thank you, Insight Panelists, for sharing these yummy homemade treat recipes!
*Please note: All recipes that include peanut butter should use dog-safe peanut butter that is xylitol-free.
Dairy-Free Frosty Paws
Mix together:
- 2 1/2 cups oat milk (or almond milk)
- 1 1/2+ cup dog-friendly peanut butter*
- 1 can pumpkin
- 1/3 cup honey
Fill 4-ounce cups two-thirds of the way full and freeze. I usually hide a treat in the center.
Makes: 12 frosty paws
Kitty Delights
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Mix together:
- 5-ounce can of tuna
- 1/2 cup white cornmeal
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup water
Form mixture into small bite-size balls, and place them on a baking sheet. Flatten the balls with a finger — just like you’re making thumbprint cookies.
Bake for 5 minutes. Flip and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Paisley's Birthday Loaf
Preheat your oven to 175°F. Mix together:
- 3 cups meat (we use lean ground beef)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup chopped/grated veggies (we used carrots and broccoli)
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
Mix and roll into a loaf.
Bake in a bread loaf pan for 80 minutes.
Pumpkin Peanut Butter Treats
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Mix together:
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup pumpkin
- 2 tablespoons dog-friendly peanut butter*
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
The mixture should form a dry, stiff dough. Add small amounts of water if needed to make the dough workable.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface. Then, roll it out to 1/2 inch thick, and cut it into shapes.
Bake on a lightly greased cookie sheet for approximately 40 minutes or until golden brown.
