Banana Oat Dog Treats

These simple baked biscuits use three plain ingredients you probably already have. They are soft rather than hard, which makes them easy to break into small training-sized pieces.

Banana Oat Dog Treats

Makes About 20 small biscuits · 30 minutes total

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana, peeled and mashed
  • 1 1/2 cups (about 150 g) rolled oats
  • 1 egg
  • 2-3 tablespoons water, as needed

Instructions

  1. 1Heat the oven to 180°C / 350°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. 2Blitz half the oats into a coarse flour, or use all whole oats for a chunkier biscuit.
  3. 3Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth, then beat in the egg.
  4. 4Stir in the oats until you have a stiff dough, adding water a spoonful at a time only if it is too dry.
  5. 5Roll out to about 1 cm thick and cut into small shapes, or roll into balls and flatten slightly.
  6. 6Bake for 18-22 minutes until firm and lightly golden.
  7. 7Cool completely on a wire rack before serving — freshly baked treats hold heat inside.

Storage

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze for up to 3 months and defrost what you need.
  • These treats contain no preservatives, so discard any that smell or look off.

Serving considerations

  • Break biscuits into small pieces for training rather than giving a whole one.
  • Treats should stay a small part of your dog's daily calories — ask your vet what that means for your dog's size and weight.
  • Introduce any new treat gradually, especially if your dog has a sensitive stomach.
