Peanut Butter Dog Bone Treats
My dog Grace loves dog treats and I’ve always wanted to try making homemade treats for her so I decided to finally give it a try this past weekend. I found an easy peanut butter dog bone treats recipe on Food Network that sounded good and it used ingredients that I had on hand. These peanut butter dog bone treats took only a few minutes to throw together and about 20 minutes to bake and my dog loved them.
Side Note: Make sure the peanut butter you use doesn’t have Xylitol in it. It’s a sweetener used in many foods, including peanut butter, and is safe for humans but potentially deadly for dogs. If ingested, it can cause seizures, liver failure, and death, warned one animal hospital, which called xylitol “extremely toxic” to dogs.
Peanut Butter Dog Bone Treats
Ingredients:
- Cooking spray
- 2 cups of whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup Parmesan, finely grated
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter, at room temperature
How to Make Peanut Butter Dog Bone Treats
Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees. Line a heavy baking sheet with tin foil then coat with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, parmesan cheese, and baking powder. Stir in the broth and peanut butter until the mixture forms a crumbly dough. Press the dough together to form a ball.
On a lightly floured work surface, knead the dough for 30 seconds until smooth. Roll out the dough into a 10-inch circle, about 1/2 inch thick. Using a dog treat cutter, cut out bones and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake until lightly golden, 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.

We both hate peanut butter but now if only I had a dog that would be a great way to get rid of it LOL Hope you are well Diane
Thank you for this recipe, I will try it out. I’m baking treats for my dog regularly, using this recipe: 1 cup of whole wheat flour, 1 cup of corn flour, the same like for making polenta, 1 cup of oats, 1 egg, a hand full of chopped parsley, 1 clove of minced garlic (optional), a handful of fried bacon crumbs. Mix, adding water approx, 1,5 cup, cut into rectangular shapes – and bake in 350F for about 15 min on each side or until light brown and crispy. Best regards and wishing you a fast healing!
And I have forgotten to list one large spoon of olive oil in the ingredients.
I have to make those Pame! Im sure my Mouska would love these!!!
So glad to hear you’re feeling better! And it looks like these treats were a hit!
We think alike. I have been making peanut butter dog treats for my dog since she was born 4 years ago. I make them small, about 1 inch, and use them for treats. Glad you injury didn’t take you out for too long.
Well, Gracie is just adorable. I must find the dog cookie recipe that was in the book I read a few weeks back (The Mapmaker’s Children) and send it to you.
A happy dog :-))
I’m a little disappointed that Gracie didn’t write this post…or at least a review on YELP 😉
Glad you are feeling healed enough to type. Some dogs can be allergic to peanuts and they also should not have salt. Just thought I would tell you in case Grace has a reaction to something xx
My dog would absolutely love these! I think it always makes us feel warm inside when our pets like a homemade treat that we made special, just for them!
Dog treats are so simple! And usually my girl isn’t too picky. 😛 Peanut Butter is the best! Thanks!
