With just three ingredients—banana, peanut butter, and oats—you can whip up a batch of homemade cookies your pup will love. Quick, budget-friendly, and healthier than most packaged treats.
Ingredients
- 2 cups oats + a little extra for rolling
- 2 ripe bananas
- ½ cup natural peanut butter (see note below)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 300°F Line baking sheet with parchment paper
- Pulse oats in food processor until fine and flour-like. Add the bananas and peanut butter and blend until mixture comes together into a sticky dough.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface. Use extra ground oats, whole wheat flour, or another dog-safe flour to keep it from sticking. Roll the dough and cut into shapes with a cookie cutter—or slice into squares with a knife or pizza cutter.
- Arrange pieces on baking sheet. Bake 25–30 minutes.
- Cool completely before serving. Store in airtight container: 1 week at room temperature, 2 weeks in fridge, or several months in freezer.
Notes
- Peanut butter safety: Always use natural peanut butter with no added sugar, salt, or oils. Check label to be sure it does not contain xylitol, which is dangerous for dogs.
