An easy three-ingredient recipe that your pups are sure to appreciate!  Have fun making these oatmeal peanut butter dog treats!

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Dog Treats

  • 2 tbsp oats

You’ll also need:

  • Baking Sheet
  • Cute Measuring Cups
  • Dog Treat Jar

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°.  Get a non-stick baking sheet ready.

2. Mix together the peanut butter, oats and flour in a large bowl.  The mixture will not be a dough.  It will be a little bit clumpy.

3. With your hands, roll the peanut butter mixture into little balls.  You can make them bigger or smaller, depending on the size that would be appropriate for your dogs.

4. Lay each ball onto your non-stick baking sheet.

5. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.  Bake longer for a harder, crunchier treat.

6. The batch I created made 12 1-inch treats.

    Did you use instant or regular oats?

    Can you use regular flour instead of whole wheat flour? I have everything except the whole wheat flour here at home

    Please don’t get mad at me for sharing this tone tip:
    Most dogs love peanut butter — and their owners love seeing the funny faces they make when they eat it. But not all peanut butter is safe for pets, and all dog owners should know about this potentially deadly ingredient.
    Xylitol, a sweetener used in many foods, including peanut butter, yogurt, toothpaste and chewing gum, is safe for humans but potentially deadly for dogs. If ingested, it can cause seizures, liver failure and death, warned one animal hospital, which called xylitol “extremely toxic” to dogs.
    Most peanut butters are free of the sweetener, but its use as a low-calorie alternative to sugar is increasing, which means dog owners need to be vigilant when it comes to what their pets are eating. Peanut butter brands that contain xylitol include Go Nuts, Co., Krush Nutrition, Nuts ‘N More and P28 Foods.
    Symptoms of xylitol poisoning in dogs include vomiting, muscle weakness, difficulty walking and tremors — and they usually begin within 15-30 minutes of consumption. Anyone who suspects their dog may have accidentally eaten something containing xylitol should contact a veterinarian or call the Pet Poison Helpline.

      Yes this is true. Pet parents need to be aware and research brands before they use them.

      I’m not sure how you are making them so unfortunately I can’t tell you what you are doing wrong. Perhaps try baking them longer?

    These did NOT turn out! Mine crumbled the minute I touched them. I wanted to give them out as a gift to a couple of dog owners but they ended up in the trash…

      Sorry to hear that, Janet. I’d suggest adding more water next time if you think it’s looking too crumbly. You could also add egg or coconut oil.

      Yes – I’d recommend putting any leftovers in the fridge. They can be frozen, also.

    How long are they good for?

      They are good for about 1-2 weeks when refrigerated. You can also freeze them to last longer.
