DIY 3-Ingredient Vegan Dog Treats

December 18, 2015 by Margaret 130 Comments

DIY 3-Ingredient Dog Treats | Gluten-free, Vegan | The Plant Strong Vegan
When you make homemade treats and they happen to be vegan and people FLIP OUT! Seriously though, if you feel strongly against your dog consuming a treat containing no animal bi-products, please feel free to adjust this recipe as needed or completely disregard it altogether. I’m not here to tell you how to feed you companion animals – I merely would like to offer up a easy recipe that you can share with them. Fur babies deserve a little something special too!

Each batch yields about 12 medium-sized biscuits. For reference I used these dog bone cookie cutters, in the 3.5 inch size. They perfectly filled a quart jar, complete with a little bow for gift giving. Any dog-owner would greatly appreciate some homemade treats for their companion. I made this batch for my sister’s pug, Mordecai. Needless to say, he loves them.

This is such a simple recipe that require very little. You can use any flour you prefer that meets your pup’s needs. You can also add upon this recipe, including mint (for fresh breath), flax (for shiny coat) and/or chia seeds (for added protein and digestive support). I can’t wait to hear what your dog thinks of these!

DIY 3-Ingredient Vegan Dog Treats

Prep 10 mins

Cook 30 mins

Total 40 mins

Author Margaret

Yield 14 medium

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Oat or Rice Flour, any works
  • 2 ripe Bananas, mashed
  • 1/4 cup Peanut Butter*, smooth (unsweetened)

Instructions

  1. Peel your bananas and mash them with the peanut butter until smooth.
  2. Measure and pour in your flour, adding half at a time. Mix until evenly combined and add the remaining half.
  3. Fold together until combined. Use your hands as needed to form a solid ball of dough.
  4. Chill the dough for 20 minutes*. Optional, but it helps firm the dough more.
  5. Remove the dough from the fridge and place on parchment paper or a well floured counter.
  6. Preheat your oven to 325 F.
  7. Roll out the dough to a 1/3-1/2 inch thickness.
  8. Using your cookie cutter, cut out shapes as desired.
  9. Transfer your cookies to a parchment lined baking sheet.
  10. Use a fork to poke 4 holes in the center of each, to allow steam to escape.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
  12. Remove and let completely cool before transferring to an air-tight container.
  13. Give to your pup as desired! (They're people safe too!)

Notes

Depending on the size of your bananas, you might need to add a touch more flour. The dough should be slightly sticky but firm, like a sugar cookie dough. Chilling will slightly firm it up more, but it's not essential. I used a peanut butter that was only organic peanuts. Please read the label to ensure you're using a product that DOES NOT contain added oils or sugar. Some sweeteners are TOXIC to animals.

Freeze for up to 3 months. This is a treat, please refrain from giving your dog too many. 1-2 per day is more than enough, depending on their size. Feel free to add ground flax, chia or hemp seeds for added protein and healthy fats!

This is the bone-shaped cookie cutter I used. The medium sized one.

      Thank you, Linda. If you’re making them thinner, I would start by cutting the time in half and baking until they’re firm and golden brown. Adjusting the time as needed from there. Hope your Yorkie enjoys!

      Thanks Sophia! I’d recommend replacing with a flour you know your dog can consume safely, like wheat or maybe even coconut flour. I’d avoid using a bleached white flour, try to find something that’s going to offer some bit of nutrients.

But making big batches sometimes go bad I see u said can freeze but what about in general so they need refrigeration or can sit in jar on shelf and if they can sit in jar for how long can the be there

      November 8, 2016 at 7:35 am

      Great question! It depends on how well you bake them. If they’re cooked through and crispy they can sit on the counter in an air-tight container for about a week. If you bake then to stay softer, I’d recommend keeping them in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to a week as well. You can freeze these for 3-4 months though.

          Yeah, due to the banana it’s really best to keep them as fresh as possible. But to give them a longer shelf life you can always do a lower temperature bake for a longer period of time to really dry them out. Even then I wouldn’t push more than two weeks. When in doubt, throw them in the freezer to keep for longer. Hope this helps!

      I bought a smooth peanut butter that had no added oil or sugar. Salt is fine, but it’s a bonus if it doesn’t include that too. Whole Foods will definitely have it, their 365 brand is oil and salt free to my understanding.

      I buy rice flour from Vitacost. To make oat flour, you use rolled oats and blend them up in a blender or food processor until it creates a fine texture. Hope that helps! Thanks so much, Mo is such a sweetie.

      Hey Katie, absolutely! You can reduce the cooking time slightly and reduce the heat slightly so they don’t dry out as much. They won’t have as long of a shelf life, but they will be softer. Hope that helps!

I thought it would be fun anyways, so I gave it a try. When I was done, I gave them some, and now they won’t leave me alone.

      They’re crispy. You can reduce the baking time to keep them softer in texture. But they last longer when dried out. If you bake for less time you should store them in the fridge in an air-tight container since they contain no preservatives.

          October 23, 2017 at 8:14 am

          The mold most likely held in more moisture and kept them from drying properly. You could bake for the whole time and then at the end pop them out and let them rest in the oven while it’s still hot but turned off to further dry them out. I hope that helps! Just keep checking on them to make sure they don’t burn. Once fully cooked they will firm up a bit more too.

    Hi there! I am excited to try this recipe today! One of our dogs has food allergies so we are in the process switching our dogs to a vegan diet. They have done well on homemade dog food but we are happy to have turkey friendly options available. My question is regarding rice protein. We are vegetarian and I purchased a large container of organic rice protein. Do you have any “dog treat” recipes in which rice protein may be added? Thanks so much!

    Reply
    • Margaret

      January 6, 2018 at 6:56 pm

      Hey Julie! Hope your pups enjoy these treats. For adding protein powder, you can reduce the amount of flour based on how much protein you would like to replace it with. Which depends on about how many grams of protein you want each treat to have. This recipe should work just fine using the rice protein in place of the flour. Hope that helps!

I use a pizza cutter wheel to make tiny training treats, about 1/4-1/2″ on a side so a dog can eat a lot of them without filling up. My very fear-aggressive rescue dog, who initially could not be handled at all without risking a bite, has become enthusiastically cooperative once he learned that he can earn these treats. And my 16-year-old picky eater dog has begun emptying her bowl once she learned that an empty bowl will earn her a couple of these treats for dessert. Even my two youngest cats come running for them!

    Another thing I’ve discovered with this recipe: You can use a small pinch of the unbaked, raw dough to make a vegan pill pocket. I leave the dough in an airtight container the refrigerator for up to a day to pull off bits for pill pockets, then go ahead and bake what’s left before it goes bad. This allows my housemate (who doesn’t know how to pill dogs) to give the seniors their medicines if I’m away.

      That’s such a great idea! My senior pup struggles with pills and I usually hide them in a spoonful of peanut butter haha.

      You could, but I’d recommend parsley for dogs instead. About 1/4 cup for this recipe is plenty.

    This looks great! Are they very crumbly?

      Thanks! They are crunchy when dried out fully but less so if you bake them for less time.

    Do you think I could sub pumpkin for the peanut butter and they would turn out?

      You could try it, it might not bind as firmly together though. If possible try adding some flax meal to strengthen that bond, since peanut butter tends to be thicker and sticky. Or go half and half with pumpkin and a nut or seed butter of choice.

    The dough was super duper sticky! I did not add more rice flour, but thought to roll the dough between parchment paper! yay! it worked! Had to bake longer i think because my cutter is smaller than what you used..but whatever, they love them! Thank you!

    Going to attempt to make these but I was wondering if almond butter and almond flour can be used instead of peanut butter and rice flour.

      Dogs typically have a harder time digesting almonds. You could use them, but I wouldn’t give your dog more than 1-2 per day.

        I went with an organic peanut butter and used the almond flour (that’s all I had) but it turned out really sticky. Used more flour but the end result was fantastic, kept them soft because my doggo has six missing teeth so crunchy is not much of an option.
        Is my dog still limited to just 1-2 because of the four used? (Did not used the almond butter)

          If your dog is under 25 pounds 2 a day is plenty. You know them better than I do, watch how they eat and react to it and gauge off of that. I wouldn’t give more than 3 in a day if you have a bigger dog. It’s a treat, not a supplement.

    Hi, I am disappointed to say this recipe did not work. It was much to sticky and their was no possible way no matter how much flour you use or how long you chilled it that you would even be able to roll it. I even added another 1/2 cup of oat flour and 1/2 cup wheat flour. It still didn’t work. I also tried to roll it with parchment. Still didn’t work. In the end I just put them on a cookie sheet and press them with a fork. They didn’t look as pretty as I liked but my dog thought they were okay.Bummer. Big was of time.

      I’m so sorry to hear that! What type of peanut butter did you use? Maybe the bananas you had were bigger then the ones I used, I’ll be sure to adjust that so the measurements are more exact.

    Great idea! Approximately how many does it yield? Know it varies according to size.

      Using the cookie cutter I have, it yields roughly 20.

      You probably could, I haven’t personally so I’m not sure how that would react with everything else. I’ll start with maybe 1-2 fresh strawberries blended up and then add that to the batter, with extra flour as needed.
