Dog-Friendly Pancakes
Though pancakes aren't safe for dogs, this healthy version with just 2 ingredients for the batter is a great alternative.
This dog-friendly pancake recipe contains peanut butter and an egg that can be topped with fruits that dogs can eat such as raspberries & blueberries.
Eggs are very beneficial to dogs in small amounts that are full of vitamins, minerals and high in protein.
This recipe also contains peanut butter as a topping but this is completely optional.
A small amount of peanut butter is safe for dogs providing you ensure it is xylitol free, free from unnecessary additives and smooth.
Xylitol is toxic for dogs and it is essential that your dog doesn't consume any amount of this ingredient.
Do ensure that these dog-friendly pancakes have fully cooled after making to ensure that your dog doesn't burn their mouth or throats.
Ingredients You'll Need
- 1 banana
- 1 egg
- Natural peanut butter (Ensure this is xylitol free)
- Blueberries and raspberries
- 1 tsp coconut oil
Step-by-Step Instructions
Here's how to make these delicious dog-friendly pancakes:
Step 1 - Make your batter
Peel and chop the banana into small chunks then mash with a fork into a mixing bowl until smooth. Crack an egg into the bowl and mix together.
Step 2 - Preheat The Pan
When fully combined, place a pan onto the hob on a medium heat. Add a teaspoon of coconut oil and mix around the pan as it melts.
Step 3 - Cook The Pancakes
Pour small amounts of batter onto the preheated pan to form mini pancakes. Cook each side for about 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
You can use a spatula to turn the pancakes over or give them a flip.
Step 4 - Add Optional extras
As you let the pancakes cool fully, you can rinse some blueberries & raspberries to add on top.
You can also melt some xylitol free peanut butter to add to your dog-friendly pancakes.
Just ensure the peanut butter and pancakes have cooled before feeding to your dog.
These dog-friendly pancakes are a special treat for your dog that can be enjoyed on pancake day, or any other day of the year!
This recipe is of course a healthy alternative to flour pancakes for humans too that you can share with your dog.
If you want to make a treat for yourself that is dog-friendly too, these pancakes are a great idea!
