Quick and Easy Pancake Recipe
Ingredients
1 banana (very ripe)
1 egg
Optional – squirt of honey and pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
- Slice banana and mash together with one egg until you have a batter consistency. There will be small lumps, but that doesn’t matter.
- Heat up a non stick pan and if you want to make pancakes in the shape of a bone of a dog then you can use metal cutters to poor the batter into.
- Voila! Cute pancakes your dog will LOVE!
Dog Friendly Ice cream
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 5 cups yogurt
- 1 cup peanut butter
Instructions
- Blend the mixture together until there are no lumps at all. I would recommend using really ripe bananas as they blend really easily.
- Pour into ice cube trays. I had some fun heart shaped trays which made tiny little heart shaped ice cream treats.
- Freeze overnight or until fully frozen. Treat your dogs to a tail wagging treat!
Dehydrated Dog Treats
- Slice lean beef 1/8th of an inch thick
- Cut into thin treat size strips
- Place on the dehydrator tray with a small gap between each slice
- Turn on to 70 degrees and set the timer for 6 hours
After 6 hours they were bendy but didn’t snap in half. I wanted them to be chewy so they would last longer.
I did try them for 12 hours initially and they were too brittle and the dogs ate them in seconds.
Note – you can always test them after 5, 6, 7 etc hours and see whether you are happy with them and take them out. And if you don’t have a dehydrator you can do them in a low heat oven.
