How to Make Healthy Homemade Banana Pumpkin Dog Treats
We have been known to do big celebrations for our animals. If you know anything about us at all, we love to make homemade treats and things for dogs and cats, including a birthday cake for cats (yes — you read that right). This treat is no different.
This recipe is super easy and before you know it, you will have delicious dog treats to share with your fur baby.
For the cutter, you can use any type you want. I wanted mine to look more like bones, so I purchased this bone cookie cutter pack. It has 3 different sizes so you can make the perfect sized bone for your precious pooch.
Anyone can make these. Simply mix all your ingredients together. You can use a mixer, or you can do it by hand — either way will work.
Once you get everything mixed together, knead your dough for a couple of minutes on a floured surface.
Then, take the dough and roll out until the dough is about 1/8″ thick. This will make for crispy bones. If you want a more tender bone, simply roll to 1/4″ thick, which is what we wound up doing.
Then simply bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the bones are done to your liking.
Remove from the tray and allow them to cool before giving them to your sweet pooch.
Milo LOVED these and I will definitely be making some more for sure.

I made these, instead of flour I use oats and blend them in my bullet to make oat flour then press it onto a cookie sheet and cut into bars with a pizza cutter, bake until crunchy. My dog loves them. Thank you for the recipe

I have made these dog treats several times and my dogs just love them! I roll them out to about a quarter-inch and then bake for right at 20 minutes. They turn out chewy which is what my dogs prefer. I have used both whole wheat and regular white flour and the dogs like both. I prefer to use the whole wheat but in a pinch, the other works. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! Oh, and this doubles well in case anyone is wondering!
