Banana Treat Recipes

BANANA AND PEANUT BUTTER DOG TREATS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place mashed bananas in a bowl. Add peanut butter and flour and mix until thoroughly combined. If dough feels too sticky to handle, mix in more flour; do not exceed 2 tablespoons.
• Scoop a small amount of dough and place onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough to an even thickness of your preference, rotating after each roll and adding flour as needed to avoid sticking. Dust cookie cutters lightly in flour. Cut dough into desired shapes and transfer to the prepared cookie sheet. Roll and cut remaining dough.
• Bake in batches in the preheated oven until golden brown and firm, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

FROZEN BANANA TREATS

Steps:

• Peel bananas and slice bananas approx 1.5-2cm thick (1/2 - 3/4 inch) thick.
• Add a small amount of nut butter to a banana slice and top with a small amount of chia jam. Top with another banana slice to make a sandwich. *SEE NOTE 4
• Continue until all the banana is used up. I made 14 but how many you make will depend on the size of your banana and how thick you slice.
• Line a baking tray with a silicon mat/baking paper and place the banana treats on the tray in a single layer, ensuring the bites to not touch (this stops them from clumping together.
• Freeze for two hours (or longer) and then transfer to a freezable container. Enjoy straight from the freezer.
