Making homemade snacks for your four-legged friend is a breeze with this simple peanut butter dog treat recipe. Pups will love the peanut butter flavor!
WATCH HOW TO MAKE THESE PEANUT BUTTER DOG TREATS:
Did you know that homemade dog treats are crazy easy to make? Yup! I actually just found out myself a few weeks ago. I got inspired after reading the ingredient list on a few natural treats that I bought for Olive and decided it couldn’t be that hard to make them myself.
And it’s not! The dough can be whipped up in a flash with everyday ingredients you probably have sitting in your pantry right now.
The only time consuming part is using a cookie cutter to cut out whatever shape you want, but I didn’t mind because it’s kind of relaxing. Plus all I could think about the entire time is how tiny and cute these mini bones are.
Seriously, how cute are they?
I used this mini bone cookie cutter so the bones are about 1 1/2 inches — just Olive’s size!
I’m actually worried I might be quickly becoming a crazy dog lady because I’ve already made THREE batches!! Some are for Olive, but we’ll definitely be gifting some to Olive’s friends over the holidays as well.
I’ve given homemade baked goods for holiday gifts, but never thought to do the same with homemade pet treats. I’m not sure why because homemade dog treats are perfect for dog-lovers. Your friends and family will love that you thought of their furry four-legged friend and the treats will keep their pets happy for days!
The recipe I used is really straight-forward with only four simple ingredients:
- The base is whole wheat flour (all-purpose works but whole wheat is more nutritious). You can also use a gluten-free option like sorghum, oat or garbanzo bean flour.
- Peanut butter for some healthy fat and flavor.
- Apple sauce or mashed banana for a little sweetness.
- Veggie or chicken stock to moisten the dough and add flavor.
Once mixed together the dough is really easy to work with. Simply roll it out on parchment paper, cut the dough into desired shape and bake. That’s it!
The great part about this recipe is that you know exactly what’s in the treats and you can feel good about the fact that there’s no preservatives, additives or funky ingredients.
The treats have been taste-tested by at least three dogs (and a few humans) — two paws up all around! We don’t really feed Olive people food so I wasn’t sure if she liked peanut butter, but after having her taste-test these treats there’s no denying that she’s a fan. I guess she takes after her parents considering both Isaac and I are peanut butter fanatics.

PinDescription
Making homemade snacks for your four-legged friend is a breeze with this simple peanut butter dog treats recipe. Pups will love the peanut butter flavor!
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce or mashed banana
- 1/4 cup vegetable, chicken or beef stock
- bone shaped cookie cutter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine flour, peanut butter and apple sauce in a large mixing bowl. Add stock and stir until well-combined. The dough will be thick. Once combined use your hands to press the dough into a ball.
- Place dough ball on a flat service (with a sprinkle of flour if needed) and roll out evenly with a rolling pin. Dough should be about 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut the dough into desired shape and place on ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake for 18 minutes or until golden brown. Store in an airtight container.

I used a mini bone shaped cookie cutter because Olive is small (6 pounds), but you could use a bigger cookie cutter to make treats for larger dogs. I think I might actually buy this little set so I have a few different sizes and shapes.
Do you give your pets gifts for the holidays?

December 14, 2015 at 10:17 amSuch a cute idea!! One of my dogs has bad allergies (literally, his test said he was allergic to people), so it’s great when I can control what ingredients are in his treat! I know my fur babies will love these.

Maggie @ say yes to salad says
December 14, 2015 at 12:08 pmHow long do you think they would stay good?
Brittany Mullins says
December 14, 2015 at 2:50 pmThey’re dry so I think they should last about a week when stored at room temperature in a sealed container. Since a week is a short time to eat a large amount of treats you could also freeze any extras. They should last for a few months in the freezer. If your dog likes cold stuff (like ice) he/she might be fine eating them straight from the freezer. If not, you can take them a few minutes early.
Adrienne (@hippieitch) says
December 14, 2015 at 1:04 pmWe make our dog treats too! I actually just use a pizza cutter to cut the rolled out dough into little squares.
Brittany Mullins says
December 14, 2015 at 2:52 pmThat’s a great idea!
Tim Wall says
May 20, 2019 at 7:13 pmGo to tractor supply online. They sell a complete set of dog cookie cutters shaped like little bones from 1 “ up to 3 inch. If you go through work like this your may as well look professional. I am make several sizes and bring a bag of treats to my friends for their dog. The friends get nothing. The dog feels special.Also try chicken bouillon soaked up by quick oaks as a thickener
Anne says
December 15, 2015 at 12:00 pmI’m so excited to make these! I’m going to order my cookie cutter now and I plan to make some for family and friends over the holidays. And my dog’s gift was the first gift I bought this year.. I had to put it away so I wouldn’t be tempted to give it to her early!
Sara Powell says
December 17, 2015 at 7:17 pmThis is such a great idea! I’m hoping to find the time to make a batch to give as gifts, but if not, I know I’ll make some for my own dogs after the holidays. Thanks for the idea! 🙂
:D says
December 17, 2015 at 7:25 pmDo these bake up real dry like a hard cookie?
Brittany Mullins says
December 17, 2015 at 11:04 pmYes they do. The texture is very similar to most dog treats you’d buy at a pet store.
:D says
December 21, 2015 at 9:34 pmI doubled the recipe and baked them today. They came out perfec – dry and very firm. I baked these as Xmas gifts for 4 dogs. Thankyou for sharing this very simple recipe.

Rebecca Dill says
January 18, 2016 at 10:09 amcould i give these to my cat?
Brittany Mullins says
January 18, 2016 at 12:47 pmI’ve never owned a cat so I’m not 100% sure if peanut butter is something they should have. Maybe check out this article.
lauren says
February 29, 2016 at 12:46 pmVery important to make sure you do NOT use peanut butter containing Xylitol. It is poisonous to pets!
Brittany Mullins says
March 1, 2016 at 6:16 pmThanks for the tip Lauren — I didn’t even realize that some peanut butter brands include Xylitol!
Iyania says
April 13, 2016 at 7:46 pmIf you don’t have chicken stock would water be fine?
Brittany Mullins says
April 13, 2016 at 9:51 pmYes!
Julie says
May 31, 2016 at 3:56 pmI just made these for the first time. Mine are larger than the ones shown. I used a hydrant, dog and bone cookie cutter. Mine are still a bit soft out of the oven, will they harden up like a dog biscuit as they cool? Or do I need to bake them longer?
I made these for my oldest son’s newly adopted dog and can’t wait to ship them off.
Thank you for the recipe!
Brittany Mullins says
May 31, 2016 at 5:43 pmThey should harden a tiny bit as they cool, but I’d probably bake them a bit longer if they’re still pretty soft.
Catherine Smith says
April 4, 2019 at 8:33 amI’ve been making dog cookies for years. I was told long time ago when done baking turn oven off, open door a bit and just let the cookies stay there til oven is cold. They finish drying out without over baking. They are nice and crispy even tge ones I put the veggie pulp in.
Myriam says
June 2, 2016 at 12:53 pmHey Brittany,
Just found your blog through this recipe. I just did the dough and I felt that it is a bit too soft. I feel that I need to use a bit of flour to be able to roll it. Is that normal? If not, should I add more flour? I used oat flour instead of wheat flour if that makes a difference..
Brittany Mullins says
June 2, 2016 at 11:08 pmHi Myriam. Yes, if the dough seems soft I would definitely add a bit more flour. It was probably because you used oat flour instead of whole wheat. I realize you wrote this comment earlier today. I hope the treats turned out well and your pup(s) are enjoying them!
Vicki says
June 6, 2016 at 8:03 pmMy pups love these treats. Super easy to make. I added a heaping tablespoon of organic coconut oil, only had banana and needed a little more moisture and did not want to use more broth. Thanks for sharing.
Brittany Mullins says
June 8, 2016 at 9:16 amYay!! I’m so glad that your doggies like the treats!! I love the addition of coconut oil too. It’s awesome for their coat! 🙂
Gerry Downey says
July 9, 2016 at 9:52 amI do not see any measurements for the peanut butter cookies.
Brittany Mullins says
July 9, 2016 at 11:18 amHi Gerry. Are you talking about the peanut butter dog treats? If so, the measurements are listed here.
V. Prather says
July 23, 2016 at 1:31 pmMy two pups love these treat! I did make one change to mine, I added a Tablespoon of coconut oil. I have made them three batches, Bentley actually goes to the cabinet and “asks” for them. ????❤️

Janice says
October 4, 2016 at 9:37 pmHello so is the coconut replacing any ingredient or is it in addition to
Thanks ????
Brittany Mullins says
October 5, 2016 at 7:51 amHi Janice. I think most folks are just adding an additional tablespoon of coconut oil to the mixture, but you could probably cut back on the peanut butter by a tablespoon if you wanted. 🙂
Saleen says
August 20, 2016 at 2:59 pmCould I make this in a stand mixer or by hand?

Deb says
August 22, 2016 at 6:42 pmMy pup has some dental issues so I took them out a bit sooner. They are firm but not real crunchy. She loves them! Great recipe. I have also substituted pumpkin purée for the peanut butter. They came out great too.
Brittany Mullins says
August 23, 2016 at 10:31 amHi Deb! I’m so glad that you were able to make the treats a little softer for your pup! I’m going to try making them with pumpkin next time. Great idea.

October 4, 2016 at 12:49 pmcan u add fish oil instead of the coconut? my dog has dry skin and i was told fish oil would help that.

October 4, 2016 at 1:26 pmYes! You can definitely add a little fish oil.
Vicky McB says
October 6, 2016 at 3:49 pmI have baked peanut butter cookies, never thought to put in applesauce and bananas. I have 3 Border Collies and they loved them. Thanks for the recipe!

Julie says
October 8, 2016 at 12:21 amI LOVE this recipe! I have 5 pups – 2 labs, a Weimie mix, an American Bulldog/Lab mix, and a Beagle – so we go through A LOT is treats! This is less expensive, and more healthy, than the treats I get at the store. My question is this: I have to have surgery on a ruptured tendon on my right hand this week and wanted to make up dough in advance. Can I make the dough and freeze it for later use? Also, have you ever made the treats by just dropping them by the spoonful on a cookie sheet (like cookie dough)? I won’t be able to use my hand for 4-8 weeks, so rolling and cutting might be difficult.

Nancy Boellner says
December 9, 2016 at 6:34 amI don’t have any unsweetened appkesauce on hand. Is is safe for the pups to have sweetened applesauce?
Brittany Mullins says
December 9, 2016 at 11:45 amYes, regular applesauce should be fine!
Eden says
December 19, 2016 at 10:45 pmCould I use chicken broth instead of stock?
Brittany Mullins says
December 20, 2016 at 10:08 amDefinitely!
charlie says
December 20, 2016 at 2:24 pmwould regular flour work
Brittany Mullins says
December 20, 2016 at 2:28 pmSure! Whole wheat is more nutritious, but regular works too!
Bonnie says
May 19, 2019 at 3:00 pmCan you use bread flour??
Brittany Mullins says
May 19, 2019 at 8:34 pmI’m not sure if bread flour will work because I haven’t tried it.
Carissa K. says
January 11, 2017 at 4:03 pmI followed this recipe to the exact. But for some reason when I cut the mixture with the cookie cutter, It crumbles and falls apart. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Brittany Mullins says
January 11, 2017 at 7:37 pmIt seems like your batter is too dry. Maybe try adding some additional broth!
Makenzie Paul says
January 11, 2017 at 4:31 pmHow long do these last for? Hoping to give them to a friend.
★★★★
Brittany Mullins says
January 11, 2017 at 7:39 pmThere aren’t any preservatives in the treats so they won’t last the way store-bought treats will. To be safe, I’d say 2-3 days in an air-tight container at room temp, 2-3 weeks in the fridge or a few months in the freezer. Hope this helps!
Britni says
October 16, 2017 at 11:31 amDo you think that if I made a large batch, I would be able to vacuum seal the extra and they would last as long as they would in the freezer?
Brittany Mullins says
October 16, 2017 at 12:44 pmHi there! I haven’t tried this so I’m honestly not sure how long they would last, but I bet it would be a couple months!
Shannon Delatore says
February 25, 2017 at 1:17 pmI followed the recipe to the letter, using whole wheat flour, and it’s really sticky. I’m having to add flour to stiffen it up. Hope it turns out ok! I’m really excited to try this and will also be trying it with bananas in the next batch, then steamed carrots in the next one We’re having a baking day since it’s cold. 🙂
Brittany Mullins says
February 25, 2017 at 3:55 pmhmm… I’m wondering if your peanut butter was a bit looser than mine? I hope adding the extra flour helps! Let me know how they turn out!! And please let me know how the carrot and bananas work too!! Enjoy your baking day.
Chelsea says
May 15, 2017 at 11:36 amHi! I have never made dog treats before.. I’m a new dog owner! Is it okay to use regular flour in them or is that terrible for dogs? Just wondering because that’s what I have at home already..
Brittany Mullins says
May 15, 2017 at 11:41 amHi Chelsea. All-purpose flour will definitely work! Whole wheat is just more nutritious.
Alix says
May 25, 2017 at 7:36 pmI’m getting a collie puppy next week and I’m going a bit crazy with dog stuff! Can’t wait to make these, hoping my current 13yo collie likes them too (he’s picky)!! I’m gonna use banana, fingers crossed it goes well because I suck at baking!!!!!
Brittany Mullins says
May 29, 2017 at 11:36 amLet me know how they turn out!!
Vanessa says
June 6, 2017 at 10:37 pmHello,
I just tried your recipe and my dough came out super greasy and would stick and split when I tried to roll it out. I did try more flour but it did nothing.
The only thing I can think of is that I used rice flour and that my Kraft peanut butter was soft and slightly liquidy. I could use some pointers 🙁
Dori says
July 4, 2017 at 11:37 amYes, it’s the rice flour. We have people with celiac in our family, so we know a lot about how different flours bake up. Rice flour doesn’t contain any gluten, which is what holds things together when baking. When we use rice flour for my sister, we have to add other ingredients to compensate. If you don’t want to use wheat flour for your dog, you may have a hard time finding a baked recipe. Also, my dough got softer the more I handled it, so I popped it into the fridge to firm up before finishing the last few cut outs.
Didi says
June 21, 2017 at 11:34 pmThese treats look so cute. I know my pup is going to love them. I feel guilty if I give him store bought treats with all those nasty ingredients. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Ellie B. says
June 24, 2017 at 4:07 pmI just made a batch of these for my border collie. She loves peanut butter and bananas, so these went over great! I was afraid they would spread as they cooked, but they held their shape fine. I used a 1-inch heart shaped cookie cutter, they ended up the perfect size for a snack! Thank you for the recipe!
Kelly says
August 6, 2017 at 4:07 pmDo you think it would work to substitute sunflower seed butter for the peanut butter?
Brittany Mullins says
August 6, 2017 at 10:00 pmHi Kelly. Sunflower seed butter should work well and is fine for dogs! Let me know how they turn out.
Bchick says
September 2, 2017 at 6:25 pmCan I use white whole wheat flour?
Brittany Mullins says
September 4, 2017 at 2:27 pmSure!!
Julianne says
September 17, 2017 at 9:54 amWhat could I use instead of applesauce or banana? I want to make these TODAY and I don’t have either of those on hand!
Brittany Mullins says
September 17, 2017 at 10:43 amI haven’t tried them with anything other than applesauce or banana so I’m not 100% sure! Sorry about that.
Kim says
November 8, 2018 at 4:56 pmI know this is over a year later, but in traditional cooking, I was told that in order to cut fats, like oil, out of the diet, you can substitute applesauce or mashed banana to make it healthier. The opposite is true, though I would stick with coconut oil if that’s the case.
Diane says
September 21, 2017 at 10:49 amsugar free peanut butter is a little different and not so creamy. Will it still work? I brought sugar free once and it was really stiff. Not sure any thing with sugar is good for dogs.
Brittany Mullins says
September 21, 2017 at 12:07 pmHi Diane. Are you meaning natural peanut butter with no sugar added? That’s what I use and it’s perfectly fine. Just make sure it’s not a sugar-free peanut butter that has artificial sweeteners. Xylitol is one artificial sweetener (sugar alcohol) that can be deadly for dogs.
Kim says
October 4, 2017 at 4:18 pmHi, could I use a silicone bone mold to make these? If so, how long would they bake for?
Brittany Mullins says
October 5, 2017 at 3:17 pmYes, definitely! Cook time will just depend on how large your mold is.
Deborah says
November 18, 2017 at 7:19 pmIs almond butter ok to use?
Brittany Mullins says
November 19, 2017 at 11:58 amHi Deborah. Almond butter should work fine!
Stephanie says
November 29, 2017 at 2:05 pmCould I substitute Almond flour/meal for the whole wheat flour?
Brittany Mullins says
November 29, 2017 at 2:31 pmHi Stephanie. I haven’t tried it with almond flour so I’m not totally sure. If you try it, be sure to let me know how they turn out. I’d love to have a grain-free version for those who need it for their pups.
Marianne says
December 13, 2017 at 1:49 pmI want to make these and give them for Christmas to my family with dogs. How long to they last? Do I have to keep them in the refrigerator or is a air tight container enough?
Brittany Mullins says
December 13, 2017 at 10:20 pmThey will definitely last longer in the fridge, but I’ve stored them an air-tight container (a mason jar) for about 2 weeks without any issues. Have fun making these!

Margaret says
December 21, 2017 at 6:23 pmI just made these today, super easy! Used banana instead of the applesauce. I had to pull them early because Tank has dental issues. It smells like peanut butter cookies in my kitchen right now. First time making dog treats. I will send some home with my son since Tank is his dog, and I’ll freeze some so I have them when Tank comes over. Thanks for a great recipe.

LeAnne Aloupis says
January 6, 2018 at 12:44 pmI think it’s great that y’all have found the way to make these at home, but I just wanted to bring awareness to all dog lovers: Brewhaus Bakery employs many special needs children who make these dog bones at school including my 19 year old daughter Lexi. They then sell them at various locations. They really take pride in what they do & enjoy making the dog treats. Just wanted to let you know
Sarah says
January 12, 2018 at 5:41 pmIf we do not use a banana, would these last longer than 2-3 days??
Eugenia says
February 3, 2018 at 3:41 amCan I use Gluten-free flour instead?
Brittany Mullins says
February 3, 2018 at 12:39 pmSure! All-purpose gluten-free flour should work fine.

February 25, 2018 at 8:43 pmHi! Do these get crunchy? How long do they stay good for? Should they be refrigerated? Thanks!
Donna says
March 5, 2018 at 9:50 pmI want to Thank You, I made these with a little bit of additions and my toy poodle loves them. I added fresh minced carrots, yogurt, pumpkin and a bit more flour and she just loves them.
Penny says
May 25, 2018 at 8:46 pmI tried making large bones with the recipe but they buckle in the middle and break has anyone had this problem. I used pumpkin instead of apple sauce and brown rice flour and oat flour.
Natalie says
June 18, 2018 at 8:24 pmMy dog has wheat allergies so would it be okay to sub the flour for oats? Please reply ASAP. Thanks.
Brittany Mullins says
June 18, 2018 at 9:08 pmI think this would work well if you grind the oats into flour or use oat flour. Let me know how it goes.
Natalie says
June 19, 2018 at 1:33 pmThis actually worked well! It just did not rise as well.
Kaithlin says
July 23, 2018 at 12:24 amIs the chicken/beef stock optional? because I can’t find those in the stores at the moment
★★★★
Brittany Mullins says
July 23, 2018 at 9:15 amYou can use water instead of the chicken/beef stock. You can also use broth. You should easily be able to find this at your local grocery store on the soup aisle.
Kat says
July 25, 2018 at 11:11 pmCan I make the dough a day or two ahead and Store in fridge until I’m ready to cut out the bones and bake them?
Brittany Mullins says
July 26, 2018 at 10:02 amHi Kat! That should work just fine.
Kelly Fargnoli says
July 31, 2018 at 9:08 pmOMG! My 3 Shihtzus LOVE these. They are at this very moment literally crying for more. I made mine med sized and a tad bit softer…I baked them about 14 minutes but didn’t make them as thick due to one of my boys just had palate resection surgery and his throat is still a bit sore. If you could only see how they are acting to get me to give them more…lol! They are killing me ???

Julie WL says
August 11, 2018 at 4:28 amI quadrupled the recipe for my 2 Saint Bernards. It made 60 biscuits. To make mixing a little easier I heated my crunchy peanut butter (Aussie Kraft brand) for 1 minute on high in the microwave. My fur babies love them. Thanks for the recipe:-)

Laura says
September 6, 2018 at 12:30 pmThis recipe turned out perfectly! I did substitute a quarter of a cup of the flour with a quarter cup of organic oats (chopped to “quick size “). Used my own homemade applesauce, which includes cinnamon, and water instead of broth. Also I made flattened discs about an inch in diameter, because I didn’t have any cute cookie cutters! My old boy Lobo is 13 &1/2 year old pit bull/Lab mix and fussy and he LOVES these!! I made them a little softer for him – baked around 15 minutes – and they’re chewy but not crunchy. Perfect for an old boy (who still has all his teeth but makes it pretty obvious that he’d like to chew a little less .). Thank you so much for this recipe!! I’ll be making it constantly ?

September 11, 2018 at 5:55 amDo you have the calorie count for the dog biscuits,please? Perhaps for 1/4 cup? Have to watch Shasta’s waistline!
Erica H. says
October 18, 2018 at 9:32 amMade these just yesterday! Four out of five of our dogs LOVED them! (Fifth one is super picky, so no surprise there haha). This is a great recipe, truly. Our dogs love banana so that’s what we used with it. My step-mother tried some of the dough, and she said they were actually pretty good, just a little salty. So if you know anyone that wouldn’t mind the amount of salt flavor, then I’d totally recommend this recipe for them! ?(And your dog(s) of course lol)

Lesa says
December 12, 2018 at 5:08 pmI just made a batch. They did not turn out! They were to soft and still not done in the middle. Can you give details on how you measured the flour? My baby loves peanut butter I usually give her a teaspoon a few times a week.
Brittany Mullins says
December 12, 2018 at 9:21 pmOh no! I’m so sorry they didn’t turn out. What kind of flour did you use? I measure my flour with a dry measuring cup.

December 13, 2018 at 4:22 amI used all purpose. I did not have wheat. I’ll get some tomorrow and try it again. I normally use a spoon to add flour to my measuring cup then level it off and then sift. Is this how you measure flour? Thanks

December 22, 2018 at 8:14 amThis is a super easy recipe, and my two dogs love them. My bone cutter is kinda big so I think I need to bake them longer as they’re kind of soft. I’m heading into the kitchen to make a triple batch for my dogs and a gift for my son’s dog for Christmas. I’m using applesauce and banana for a nice taste treat.

December 30, 2018 at 11:59 amMade these with meridian peanut butter, (palm free and no sugar), applesauce and chicken stock. My ancient dog loves them, and so apparently does my 7 year old… but then who doesnt love peanut butter.

March 16, 2019 at 5:48 amAmazing recipe to make the dog food as in home as there are certain food items which you can add in the dog food but besides that you can add healthy food indigents which makes the dog food more healthier and fit your dog from diseases.

April 20, 2019 at 4:57 pmCan I hold off on the banana or apple sauce and just use peanut butter?
