Easter Dog Treats Recipes

Spring is here, flowers are blooming, and Easter baskets are filling up with sweets… but most store-bought candy isn’t safe for dogs. That’s why homemade Easter dog treats are the perfect way to include your pup in the holiday fun.

When I made my first batch of bunny-shaped treats for my dog last Easter, she sniffed them like she’d just found buried treasure in the yard. I realized then that Easter doesn’t just have to be for humans — it can be a joy-filled celebration for our four-legged family members too.

If you’ve ever tried making  homemade peanut butter banana treats , you know how satisfying it is to watch your dog enjoy something you created. Easter is just another excuse to get baking (or freezing!) for them.

Before we hop into recipes:

• Skip chocolate, raisins, and artificial sweeteners (like xylitol — dangerous for dogs)

• Use dog-safe natural ingredients like pumpkin, carrots, blueberries, and bananas

• Try fun shapes — use bunny, chick, or egg silicone molds to make them festive
