Homemade Peanut Butter and Pumpkin Dog Treats

These homemade peanut butter and pumpkin dog treats are delicious! They are super simple to make, fast and very inexpensive. It took only 30 minutes to make a big batch of this particular recipe, and chances are really good that you already have the ingredients somewhere in your kitchen!

If you are in need of a grain-free version of this, take out the instant oats and switch out the whole wheat flour for chickpea flour, coconut flour or arrowroot flour! You may need to add extra eggs or water to help bind the batter. Instead of two cups of whole wheat flour, use 1 1/2 cups of your grain-free choice!

Ingredients
  • 2 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup of instant oats
  • 1 cup of pure pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup of smooth or crunchy peanut butter

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl combine the flour and oats.
  3. Add in the pumpkin puree, eggs and peanut butter then combine all the ingredients.
  4. Place the batter in your size and shape of preference on a cookie sheet on parchment paper (or a non-stick pan).
  5. Bake in oven for 20 minutes.

These were a HUGE hit....Baron really liked them. I used ground flax seeds for most of the flour and used a little less peanut butter and more pumpkin.....he was drooling the entire time.....thanks for the recipes.....I love giving him homemade treats. Like knowing what goes into his treats.

The ground flax seed meal worked great....I had a big bag of flax seeds so I ground my own meal.....Baron loves them and all I need to do is pick up the bag they are in and the drooling starts...LOL.

I am LOVING this blog-and your site in general....lots of great info here.

Can a GSD with pancreatic enzyme insufficiency have these?

I made these with rye flour as it is far more nutritious but you can also just grind up some of your dogs own food to make a flour if you are worried about grains.

I would love to make these for my dogs, but they are allergic to eggs, Can I take out the egg and replace it with something else? Maybe honey?
