Why I Started Making Dog Treats Homemade Frozen Peanut Butter Banana

It all started with Iggy—my golden retriever and forever shadow. On hot days, she would sprawl belly-down on the kitchen floor, panting and watching the fridge like it held the secrets to life. I wanted something healthy, cooling, and quick. Store-bought frozen treats were too pricey and packed with weird ingredients.

So I whipped up these frozen bites using simple, dog-safe staples. Iggy approved with an enthusiastic tail wag and now expects one every afternoon.


Ingredients You’ll Need

These treats are made from just a few pantry staples:

  • 1 ripe banana (mashed)

  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (xylitol-free)

  • 1/3 cup natural peanut butter (always xylitol-free!)

Optional add-ins:

  • 1 tsp honey (for adult dogs only, in moderation)

  • 1 tbsp pumpkin puree (great for digestion)

Inspired by these Pumpkin Banana Oat Treats , I occasionally add pumpkin for an extra gut boost!


Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Mash banana in a bowl until smooth.

  2. Add Greek yogurt and peanut butter. Stir until creamy.

  3. Pour mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays.

  4. Freeze for 2–3 hours or until firm — or use a quick-freeze setting to speed things up.

  5. Pop out and serve one at a time!


Tip: These molds from this blog post work like a dream!

Bonding with My Dog During Prep

Iggy loves kitchen time. She watches every scoop, every stir, and licks the peanut butter spoon when we’re done. It’s become our afternoon ritual: I mix and pour, she supervises and taste-tests. She even waits patiently by the freezer until the first batch is ready.

For those days when I want something baked, I reach for our Fast 15-Minute Bacon Cheddar Dog Treats .

Storing and Serving Tips


  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer

  • Lasts 1–2 months (if your pup doesn’t eat them all before then!)

  • Serve one at a time to avoid brain freeze

I love rotating these with Sweet Potato Air Fryer Treats for variety.






Common Issues & Fixes

  • Mixture too thick? Add a bit more yogurt.

  • Too runny? Add extra banana or a spoon of pumpkin.

  • Sticking to molds? Let sit for 2 mins at room temp before popping out.

You can always keep these Peanut Butter Banana Oat Treats on standby just in case.
