VEGETARIAN DOG TREAT RECIPE
I thought a meat free dog treat recipe without using liver or meat would make a nice change so I thought I’d try banana alongside peanut butter and honey to make recipe I call Banana Bombs! These dog treats are great, they have a hard crusty shell which makes them excellent to carry around but moist and bready inside and packed with flavour! Dogs love them!
After making them I took some with me while I went out dog walking. Ruffles the Lhasa apso loved his and I even got plenty of attention from other people’s dogs who could smell them in my bag. So that’s a big paws up for them already!
INGREDIENTS
2 Eggs, 2 Bananas, 200g (1 cup) of Peanut Butter, Squirt of Honey, 200g (1 cup) of Wholemeal Flour, 200g (1 cup) of Cornflour
Please note: Some ‘low sugar’ peanut butters use xylitol sweetener as a substitute. Avoid this as it’s harmful to dogs.
METHOD
Blend half tWe’re going to need wholemeal flour, cornflour, honey, 2 eggs, 2 bananas and peanut butter!he liver, 2 eggs and a splash of milk.
Add two eggs, 200g (1 cup) of peanut butter, 2 chopped bananas and a good squirt of honey to a bowl!
Blend it till it’s smooth!
Now add 200g (1 cup) of wholemeal flour!
Then add 200g (1 cup) of cornflour!
Mix the flours in with a fork then roll up your sleeves because you’ll need to get stuck in with your hands to mix it all up!
Roll into little balls and place onto baking tray. Be quite firm when rolling them in your hands!
Preheat oven to 130°C (270°F) and then cook for 45 minutes. The buns above are now cooked and look brilliant!
Thanks, these are great! I was wondering if freezing raw chicken or raw salmon (I heard there is a bacteria in it that is deadly to dogs) is not dangerous?
I tried this recipe with 800grams of liver. Took ages longer to dry (fair buff there was more of it).
BUT it totally crumbles t after it’s been in my treat bag for 5 minutes, making it useless.
Did I do something wrong?
I have always been told by vets that garlic should never be given to dogs. So is there something better to substitute?
just dont add it if you dont want it, doesnt need a substitute.
Oh, wow, this is an amazing article!
My dog loves dried fruit – banana, apple, and a bit of apricot, pineapple – and is obsessed with dried sweet potato, but they are all becoming very expensive in the UK. Do you have recommendations for how long to dehydrate these non-meat products?
My dog really loves dried banana that is still a bit chewy. Only one place sells it and it is £4.20 or so for 100g. I’ve never tried dehydrating anything but would it be easy to get the banana to that chewy stage rather than becoming the hard, brittle, banana chip that is usually what goes for dried banana?
Any tips for dehydrating sweet potato?
I only have the dehydration function on an air fryer, and an air fryer oven: do you have any tips on ensuring fruit and veg doesn’t stick to the tray (or is this not an issue with dehydration?).
Do you recommend specific cuts of beef? I don’t eat beef myself so I’m clueless on what the different ones are.
Thanks for the ideas. Everything is getting ludicrously expensive and I would rather work out how to give my pup her favourites with dehydrating fruit, veg, and meat, than having to cut back. I came here looking for a biltong recipe and found so many other ideas!
