Dog Treats Homemade Easy Halloween – 3-Ingredient

Last October, I was dressed as a witch, my kitchen filled with pumpkin spice aroma, and the doorbell was ringing non-stop. Between candy runs, I quickly mashed a banana, stirred in pumpkin puree, and mixed oats. By the time the last little goblin had left with candy in hand, Riki had a plate of her own pumpkin-shaped biscuits cooling on the counter.

She wagged her tail so hard when she tasted the first one that I knew — this would be a new tradition. Simple, healthy, and quick enough to make on even the busiest Halloween night.

Halloween is my favorite season — the pumpkins, the costumes, the cozy kitchen smells. But I noticed something a few years ago: while I was busy baking cookies and pies, my dog Ruby was left out of the fun.

That’s when I decided to create dog treats homemade easy Halloween style — simple, safe, and festive snacks that she could enjoy while I baked for the humans. I wanted recipes so easy I could make them in between answering the door for trick-or-treaters.
