Yesterday we celebrated Luna’s Second Gotcha Day, so I wanted to make her a special treat. Despite it technically being fall, it is still in the 70’s here. Where is our cool, crisp fall weather?!
So I decided to take advantage of the warm weather and make Luna a fall themed frozen treat!
I thought of some traditional fall symbols and tried to come up with a fun treat. What else was there besides pumpkins and leaves? Candy corn of course!
Real candy corn is high in sugar and other not so great ingredients for dogs, but a candy corn frozen dog treat is delicious!
Candy Corn Frozen Dog Treats
Ingredients
- 1 - 1 1/2 cup plain non fat yogurt
- 1-2 small bananas
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 3 oz paper cups
Instructions
- Put a spoonful of yogurt into the bottom of the paper cups (about 1/2 cup total)
- Freeze for 1 - 1.5 hours
- Mix 1/2 cup yogurt and 1/2 cup pumpkin (optional)
- Add a spoonful of the yogurt/pumpkin mixture or just canned pumpkin to the paper cups
- Freeze for 1 - 1.5 hours
- Mash 1-2 bananas
- Mix bananas with 1/2 cup plain yogurt. Immersion blender works great too. (optional)
- Add a spoonful of the yogurt/banana mixture or just mashed bananas to the paper cups
- Freeze for 1 - 1.5 hours
- Peel off the paper cup and serve
This recipe can also be made by using ice cube trays or as KONG stuffing.
