Description

This DIY Doggy Ice Cream is a healthy, homemade frozen treat made with ripe bananas, plain Greek yogurt, natural peanut butter, and water or unsweetened coconut milk. Perfect for keeping your dog cool and happy during hot days or as a special reward, it’s easy to prepare with no cooking required and uses only dog-safe ingredients.


Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened and xylitol-free)
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter (xylitol-free)
  • ¼ cup water or unsweetened coconut milk


Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the ripe bananas, plain Greek yogurt, natural peanut butter, and water or unsweetened coconut milk. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  2. Fill Molds: Pour the blended mixture into silicone molds, ice cube trays, or small paper cups, distributing evenly to create single servings for your dog.
  3. Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until the treats are solid and fully frozen.
  4. Serve and Store: Once frozen, pop the doggy ice cream treats out of the molds and store them in a sealed container in the freezer. Serve one as a cool, healthy treat to your dog, especially on hot days or as a special reward.

Notes

  • Always use xylitol-free peanut butter, as xylitol is toxic to dogs.
  • You can add dog-safe ingredients like finely chopped carrots, blueberries, or cooked sweet potato for extra variety.
  • Serve in moderation based on your dog’s size and dietary requirements to maintain health.
