Hi, pet parents! The Pet Care Nanny is back with a fun, homemade peanut butter banana dog treats recipe that your dog will absolutely love!!

They are made with just three simple ingredients: plain Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and bananas!
Homemade Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 Ripe Banana
1/4 Cup of Xylitol-free Peanut butter
1/2 Cup of Plain Greek Yogurt
** I'm the proud parent of two toy poodles, and the ingredient quantities above are perfect for satisfying their treat cravings. However, if you have a larger dog or don't mind having a surplus, I suggest doubling the ingredients for a bigger batch.
Step 1: Banana Goodness
Begin by mashing up 1/2 ripe banana into a bowl. Bananas aren't just a human favourite - they are also packed with vitamins and potassium, making them a healthy choice for your dog(s)!
Step 2: Prepare Xylitol-Free Peanut Butter
Next, add in 1/4 cup of peanut butter to the mashed banana. Just make sure that it is xylitol-free, as that is harmful for dogs. Peanut butter is a great source of protein and healthy fats that your dog will love!
Step 3: Creamy Yogurt Bliss
Now, it's time to mix in 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt. Please ensure that it does not contain sugar. Greek yogurt is a dog-friendly treat because it is full of probiotics, which can be great for your pet's digestion. Mix it all together with a spoon or fork until you get a fluffy consistency.
Step 4: Pour the Mixture Into Cute Silicone Molds and Freeze It
Grab your favourite silicone mold. In our TikTok & Instagram reel, we used a popsicle mold (without sticks) for added cuteness, but ice cube trays work just as well! Simply use a spoon or fork to fill the molds.
After you have filled the molds, place your filled molds into the freezer and let them freeze for at least three hours or overnight. These treats will be worth the wait!!
Step 5: The Final Reward
Yay, you are all done! You've just created the best Homemade Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats - they are the perfect way to spoil your pup! I can easily say that these treats are my dog's all-time favourite, and I bet your dog(s) will love them too, especially if they are huge fans of bananas, peanut butter, and yogurt!
