Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree (100% pumpkin, no added sugar or spices)
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt (unsweetened, unflavored; use dairy-free if needed)
  • 1/4 cup natural peanut butter (xylitol-free)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for added sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Ensure the yogurt is plain and unsweetened, and the peanut butter is free from xylitol.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, yogurt, peanut butter, and honey (if using). Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Pour into Molds: Use a spoon or spatula to carefully pour the mixture into silicone ice cube trays or popsicle molds. Tap the molds gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles and ensure an even distribution.
  4. Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely solid.
  5. Serve: Once frozen, pop the pupsicles out of the molds and serve them to your dog. Watch them enjoy this cool, delicious treat!

Notes

  • Customization: Feel free to add fruits like blueberries or bananas to the mixture for added flavor and nutrition. If your dog is lactose intolerant, substitute the yogurt with a dairy-free alternative like coconut yogurt.
  • Storage: Store the pupsicles in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag in the freezer for up to two months.
  • Serving: Always supervise your dog while they enjoy their pupsicle, especially if it’s their first time having one. Consider breaking the pupsicle into smaller pieces for smaller dogs.
