With the weather we had last weekend and more of it right around the corner, I wanted to whip up something cold and delicious for Shoester. I recently purchased this awesome Easy Push Out Ice Cube Tray, this thing is slick and great for making all kinds of things other than ice cubes. So why not make some frozen doggy treats with it.
Like most dogs, mine is a peanut butter addict, so I figured I’d go from there. I didn’t want to get too crazy, as this was the first time I was attempting to make these, so I kept it simple with two ingredients.
Shoester gets super excited about these every time I make them. He’ll watch me whip them up and when I put them in the freezer he looks all sad and mopey, but the excitement returns when Mumma pulls them out of the freezer and pops a few out of the tray for him! I hope your pup(s) enjoys them as much as mine did! If your pup has a birthday coming up, be sure to make these Peanut Butter and Apple Pupcakes for them and make some Peanut Butter Cheesecake Dip for yourself!
- 12 oz. Banana Greek Yogurt
- 6 oz. Creamy Peanut Butter
-
Mix ingredients together with a fork until well blended.
-
Use a butter knife to transfer mixture into an Easy Push Out Ice Cube Tray. You could use a regular ice cube tray, but they might not come out as easily, with this one you can pop them right out.
-
It can get a bit messy, so use the knife to run over the top on the tray and remove any excess. Also, be sure to push mixture down so that they are nice and full.
-
Freeze for at least 1 hour.
You can do any mix of yogurt flavors you like. Shoester really likes 6 oz. Vanilla Bean Yogurt and 6 oz. Banana.

Rebecca says
I bet my pup would love those, I might have to mix it up a bit too!
Theresa @DearCreatives says

Kari says
I am not sure giving your dog sugar or artificial sweeteners is such a great idea. Think I will work on this idea and use plain Greek yogurt with natural sweetener, fruit and peanut butter.
Rebecca says
Hi Kari, I don’t give my dog artificial sweeteners as I don’t consume them myself. I use stonyfield organic yogurt for these treats and there’s no risk to my dog, yogurts are a common component of dog treats and I do agree that you need to choose the right ones. http://www.stonyfield.com/products/yogurt/smooth-creamy/lowfat-banilla

Thanks for sharing! I’ve never made my own dog treats but it looks simple enough!
