It all started with Rin—my bouncy, bright-eyed rescue pup who stole my heart the minute I saw him. After noticing that some store-bought treats upset his tummy, I wanted to create something simple, wholesome, and easy to digest. That’s when I landed on these banana pumpkin dog treats.

They reminded me of these Pumpkin Puree and Banana Dog Treats I had seen before, so I made my own twist.

I love knowing exactly what goes into Rin’s food, and these soft, chewy bites have become one of his absolute favorites!

You only need a few pantry staples:

• 1 ripe banana (mashed)

• ½ cup pumpkin purée (plain, unsweetened—not pumpkin pie filling!)

• 1 egg

• 1½ cups oat flour (or finely ground rolled oats)
  
  

Optional add-ins:

• A dash of cinnamon (if your dog isn’t sensitive to it)

• A few crushed blueberries or finely grated carrot
