Makes

18 Dog Treats

Ingredients

  • 1 medium sweet potato (cooked and mashed)

  • 1 cup oat flour (or blended rolled oats)

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter (xylitol-free)

How To Make

  1. Prep the sweet potato: Peel, cube, and boil or microwave the sweet potato until soft. Mash until smooth and let cool.

  2. Mix ingredients: In a bowl, combine mashed sweet potato, oat flour, egg, and peanut butter. Stir until a soft dough forms.

  3. Shape treats: Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼-inch thickness. Use a bone-shaped cookie cutter for fun shapes.

  4. Preheat air fryer: Set air fryer to 350°F (175°C).

  5. Air fry: Place treats in a single layer in the basket. Cook for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until firm and lightly golden.

  6. Cool completely: Let treats cool fully before serving — they will continue to firm up as they cool.

How To Store

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

  • Refrigerate for up to 1 week for extended freshness.

  • Freeze for up to 3 months in a sealed freezer-safe bag. Thaw before serving.

Serving Sizes

  • Small dogs (under 20 lbs): 1 small treat per day

  • Medium dogs (20–50 lbs): 1–2 treats per day

  • Large dogs (50+ lbs): 2–3 treats per day

Always serve treats in moderation and adjust based on your dog’s diet and activity level.
