Description
Peanut Butter & Apple Dog Pizza is a healthy, easy-to-make treat packed with dog-safe ingredients like homemade peanut butter, apples, and a dog-friendly crust. Your furry friend will love this nutritious snack!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups of whole wheat flour (or substitute with oat flour for allergies)
- 1 egg
- ½ cup of unsweetened applesauce
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of homemade peanut butter
- 1 medium-sized apple, chopped (seeds and core removed)
- Optional: shredded carrots, spinach leaves, or parsley for extra toppings
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, egg, unsweetened applesauce, and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add water, one tablespoon at a time.
- Dust a work surface lightly with flour and roll out the dough to about ¼-inch thickness. Shape it into a pizza circle or use cookie cutters for fun shapes.
- Place the rolled-out dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Pre-bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the peanut butter spread.
- Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly. Spread 2 tablespoons of homemade peanut butter evenly across the crust.
- Sprinkle the chopped apple pieces and any additional optional toppings like shredded carrots or spinach.
- Place the pizza back in the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, until the peanut butter is warm and the apples are slightly softened.
- Allow the pizza to cool completely before slicing and serving it to your dog.
Notes
- Ensure peanut butter used is xylitol-free, as xylitol is toxic to dogs.
- You can substitute whole wheat flour with oat flour for dogs with allergies.
- Apples should be cored and seeds removed to prevent any potential harm.
- Pizza can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for later use.
