Why I Started Making Banana Peanut Butter No Bake Dog Treats

My golden mix Kira started getting fussy with store-bought treats, especially in the summer when everything felt too heavy or processed. I wanted something I could make in 10 minutes, no oven required. That’s when I stumbled across a no-bake combo with banana and peanut butter. One batch in, and she was hooked. Now it's our summer staple!


Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 ripe banana (mashed)

  • 1/2 cup xylitol-free, natural peanut butter

  • 1 cup rolled oats (blended or whole)

Optional add-ins:

  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed (for omega-3s)

  • 1 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (for probiotics)

  • A touch of cinnamon (no more than 1/4 tsp)


Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mash the banana until smooth.

  2. Add peanut butter and stir until fully combined.

  3. Fold in the oats and any optional ingredients.

  4. Scoop and roll into small balls (or press into silicone molds).

  5. Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving.
