Pumpkin Treats for Dogs

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 30 minutes

Yield: 24 treats

Ingredients

1 cup freshly cooked pumpkin or unsweetened canned pumpkin
2 cups coconut flour
1 egg
1 tablespoon unsweetened/natural peanut butter
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1-2 teaspoons water (optional)

Method

  • Pre-heat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Transfer the mixture to a clean, floured surface and mix together with your hands to form a dough.
  • Roll the dough out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out treats and place evenly on baking sheet.
  • Bake for 30 minutes. Cool and enjoy!


As with any food, too much pumpkin can cause issues for your dog. Start with small quantities to avoid adding too much fibre to their bowl, and always consult your veterinarian with any concerns or questions.
