Makes

18 Dog Treats

Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter (xylitol-free)

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (or oat flour for sensitive dogs)

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

  • 1 egg

  • 1–2 tablespoons water (if dough needs softening)

How To Make

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C / 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Mix wet ingredients in a bowl: peanut butter, applesauce, and egg until smooth.

  3. Add flour gradually, mixing until a soft dough forms. Add a little water if the dough feels too dry.

  4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/2 inch thick.

  5. Cut bone shapes using a cookie cutter and place them on the baking sheet.

  6. Bake for 12–15 minutes until the treats are set but still soft.

  7. Cool completely before giving them to your dog.

How To Store

  • Store treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

  • For longer storage, keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months.

  • Allow frozen treats to thaw for a few minutes before serving.

Serving Sizes

  • Small dogs (under 10 kg): 1 small treat

  • Medium dogs (10–25 kg): 1–2 treats

  • Large dogs (25+ kg): 2–3 treats

Always serve treats in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

These soft peanut butter treats come together with simple ingredients and fill the kitchen with a warm, comforting aroma. They’re gentle on teeth, easy to chew, and perfect for rewarding good behavior or simply sharing a small moment of love with a loyal companion.
