Apple Peanut Butter Dog Ice Cream – easy and healthy 4 ingredient homemade dog treat! A great way to keep your pup cool all summer.
It’s Clementine’s 8 year adoptiversary, you guys!
I got her literally days after we moved to Colorado when we were still living in the Army hotel on Fort Carson. We hadn’t even found a house yet but I’d found a dog. She’s been through so much with me and since I don’t know her actual birthday, we’ll just celebrate today!
(Also, I gave her an at home haircut a few weeks ago because our groomer is back by our old house and that’s 45 minutes away and I am too busy for that right now. Sorry she looks a little homeless.)
With Apple Peanut Butter Dog Ice Cream! I have a plain Peanut Butter Dog Ice Cream, too, if apple isn’t your thing!
How To Make Apple Peanut Butter Dog Ice Cream
This Apple Peanut Butter Dog Ice Cream is so simple and your dog is going to absolutely love it!
It is just full fat plain yogurt (make sure there are no sweeteners, flavors, or anything funky in it), creamy peanut butter, honey, and unsweetened applesauce. You just whisk it all together and divide into freezer safe containers. And then they just need to be frozen for at least a couple hours before you serve it to your pup.
I use these cups and get 9 servings if I fill them up about ¾ of the way. I like those because they come with lids. Plus, I’ve been using them for years and years for all my frozen dog treats and I’ve never once had one crack in the freezer.
Is Peanut Butter Dangerous For Dogs?
Every time I ever post a dog treat recipe with peanut butter to my Facebook page, there’s someone in the comments shouting “PEANUT BUTTER IS BAD FOR DOGS!” and it’s infuriating because peanut butter is perfectly safe for dogs as long as you are looking at the ingredient list.
You have to make sure you aren’t buying peanut butter that has xylitol in it. That can be very harmful to your dog. I also like to avoid peanut butter with sweeteners.
I look for a peanut butter that only has peanuts listed on the ingredients list. Nothing else. Just as a rule, for my kids and my dogs. All peanut butter really needs in it is peanuts.
