Instructions

Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Once all of the ingredients are blended, pour the mixture into your desired containers for freezing.

Place in the freezer for at least a few hours to harden.

Feed to your pups and enjoy their excitement and gratitude (I like to pretend my dogs say thank you. I know they mean it).

Notes

Please make sure that your peanut butter does NOT have xylitol in it! It’s an artificial sweetener that is sometimes added to peanut butter and it is toxic to dogs. Most natural peanut butters do not have it but just check the ingredient list!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Choose Natural Peanut Butter Carefully 🥜
Always use natural peanut butter without xylitol or added sugars, as xylitol is toxic to dogs; stir the oil back into separated natural peanut butter for the best texture and nutrition.
Freeze in Stages for Perfect Texture 🧊
Pour the mixture into ice cube trays or popsicle molds and freeze for 2 hours before removing from molds, then store in freezer bags—this prevents the mixture from becoming too hard and icy.
Use Perfectly Ripe Bananas 🍌
Select bananas with yellow skin and a few brown spots for maximum sweetness and natural digestibility; frozen overripe bananas work best as they blend more smoothly.
Blend Until Completely Smooth 🔄
Process the ingredients thoroughly in a blender or food processor until completely smooth with no lumps, ensuring easy digestion and a creamy, uniform texture your dog will enjoy.
Portion Control for Safe Serving 📏
Freeze in small portions (ice cube sized) to control calories and portion sizes based on your dog's weight; larger dogs can have 2-3 cubes while smaller dogs get 1 cube per serving.
