We are doing a charity bake sale at work this week and I wanted to make some dog treats to sell. These peanut butter and banana dog treats passed the Buddy and Ellie test. Buddy is the most impatient with food and treats so he could hardly wait to try one! Can see you see that is he not even looking at me but he's looking up at the counter where the cookies are? I really do enjoy making homemade dog treats because I know exactly what the ingredients are and I know its healthy. This is also a great recipe to use up overly ripe bananas instead of making banana bread. This recipe is super easy and I basically just threw all the ingredients into my stand mixer. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can easily mix everything together in a bowl by hand. Go ahead and spoil your dogs soon!
Update - these dog treats sold out first at the charity bake sale! Yay!
