The first time I made these treats, my dog sat patiently by the oven, nose working overtime as the banana and peanut butter filled the kitchen. When they finally cooled, I gave him one—and his tail started wagging before he even finished chewing. Now, every time I grab the peanut butter jar, he magically appears, sitting extra straight, just in case it’s “treat day.” These little bone-shaped snacks have become our routine reward after walks and training sessions, and watching how genuinely happy they make him is the best part. Simple ingredients, simple joy—exactly how dog treats should be.
