3-ingredient homemade dog treats made with old-fashioned rolled oats, natural peanut butter, and banana. Perfect for your pups and human-friendly, too!
Hello!
This post is a little different but if you live with a furry friend or see one on the regular then they’re going to love it so you should stick around.
It’s Harper’s third birthday today so I thought we should celebrate!
For the past three years I’ve been making her these super simple baked dog treats to ring in her big day.
Each year I have to dig it up the recipe to make and share, so I’m finally sharing here so none of us lose it ever again!
It’s hard to forget, because these biscuits are done in under 30 minutes with clean pantry ingredients.
You just need peanut butter, banana, and oatmeal to make these 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats for a happy pup.
And if you’re so inclined, they’re absolutely human-friendly too, for a lower sugar cookie snack!
What is it about peanut butter that dogs LOVE so much?
If there’s PB on a spoon in the open dishwasher, Harper makes a beeline for it, licking and lapping until I shut the door closed and scold her.
When friends come over and Harper *won’t stop* begging for attention, the only solution is tucking a heaping spoonful of peanut butter into the center of a Kong for Harper to riddle over for hours to come.
Or at least 20 minutes.
Anyway, I get it, Harper.
Peanut butter is delicious– particularly when baked into cookies!
I get asked a lot if Harper eats a vegan diet.
The short answer is no.
But guys, she sure does love peanut butter, banana, and oats.
She takes after her momma.
She doesn’t, however, love greens, no matter how much I will her to pick up the spinach and kale that falls to the floor during my recipe shoots.
(I mean, what’s the point if they can’t double up as your vacuum cleaner?! I KID.)
The long answer is that I want her be able to eat all of the things that growing healthy pups need.
Just because she isn’t plant-based doesn’t mean I don’t check out the ingredients that go into her food, making sure she has clean options in her bowl, too!
These treats are the kind of reward you can feel good placing in your dog’s bowl (or on their snout– if you’ve watched our circus act on Instagram).
Let’s start with our quality of ingredients.
Harper had digestive troubles as a puppy, and in the beginning she had to eat a special food to heal her tummy.
Ever since then, I’m cautious about what we give her and what quantity.
With these cookies, I made sure the ingredients are 100% dog safe and friendly!
You need:
- super ripe banana (the riper the better!)
- natural peanut butter (no added oils, sugars, preservatives, or flavoring, please!)
- gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats (or you can sub oat flour, instead!)
I opted to make my own oat flour for this recipe, but you can also buy store-bought oat flour to eliminate using the blender.
That’s it! No added sugars, no rising agents, no oils, no gluten, no surprises.
The method is simple– you just smash everything together in a large mixing bowl until you have a workable pliable peanut butter-y dough.
Depending on the size of your banana(s), you may need to add a little extra peanut butter (say 1-2 TBSP) to add more moisture to the batter.
You want to add more peanut butter if you’re dough if dry and crumbly– don’t worry, your pup will thank you later.
Next you roll the dough out on a floured surface or a large sheet of parchment paper.
I didn’t measure, but I’d say 1/4″ thick dough is about what to aiming for.
Now here’s the fun part!
We cut the dough into cookie cutter shapes– I love these bones shapes in different sizes!
If you’re in a hurry, you can skip the cookie cutting altogether and instead roll the dough into 1″ balls and flatten with your hands to make a totally respectable circular treat.
I’m guessing your pup won’t care what shape they’re in but I, of course, am partial to the bone shapes for presentation!
It’s all too easy to over-bake these treats, so watch them closely around the 15 minute mark.
The cookies are done when golden brown underneath.
They may seem fragile to the touch, but they firm up when outside the oven for a few minutes.
Make sure to allow them to cool completely before serving to yourself or your furry friend!
These 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Banana Dog Treats are the perfect clean dog treat to spoil your pup!
They’re ideal to make as a homemade gift to a dog-lover for a birthday or seasonal holiday!
They keep for several weeks refrigerated and for one week at room temp.
If you want to make for multiple pooches, simply double or triple the recipe for treats for days.
When I make them for Harper I like to make a huge batch and save the cookies in the fridge for weeks to come.
She loves it!
These cookies are also totally human-friendly if you’re looking for a lower sugar peanut-butter banana snack cookie.
Make a batch for meal prep and you and your pup can duke it out for the last peanut butter banana treat.

Hey Francesca!
Thanks so much for your comment! So glad the kids and pups enjoyed them!
XOXO,
Lauren
How much oat flour do I use!?
You can use the same amount of oat flour as the rolled oats, 1 1/2 cups.
It says it if you read it
Don’t be mean. It takes less energy to be nice
I made these for our 4 month old pup. He loves them and we like them, too! I rolled them in balls and flattened with a glass, then broke into small pieces. Some in the fridge and some in the freezer.
Can these be frozen?
Yes, they can, for several months!
First timer here….Waiting for mine to cook dogs very interested
Can’t wait to see them eat them
Hi Denise,
What did you and the pup think?! I hope you enjoyed!
XOXO Lauren

I want a softer cookie, don’t bake as long?
Hi Paula,
You can try under-baking these slightly for a softer cookie.
XOXO Lauren
This recipe is simple, easy and good! I’ve made it many times : )
★
So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
How many biscuits does this make
Depends, I made two large, two medium, and one small!
My dog (and I) loved these peanut butter cookies! I was worried they would be hard but they turned out slightly soft/chewy inside which was great for my senior dog 🙏 I added a tablespoon of maple syrup and some cinnamon powder because I like my cookies a bit sweeter and I knew I would be sharing them with her! Great, simple recipe with clean ingredients ❤️
★★★★★
Hi there! SO glad you and your pup liked these treats! I love the addition of maple and cinnamon– yum! I need to make a new variation soon!
XOXO Lauren
★★★★★
This recipe made 80 little star biscuits, perfect for pet Christmas gifts! Thank you 😀
★★★★★
Hi Donna,
YES! I LOVE gifting these! So glad you enjoyed!
XOXO Lauren
How big were the stars?
I added pumpkin to this recipe. We are trying to bulk up our Goldendoodle’s diet. Worked great. These are Christmas gift treats for my two doodles. Easy…great for super busy people!
Hi Judy,
So glad these worked and I love the idea of adding pumpkin! Did you use it in place of banana? Merry Christmas!
XOXO Lauren
can i leave these out or need to be refrigerated?
I Used blueberries crushed in blender
Sounds great, thanks for sharing!
My dog loved these so much that it didn’t even chew it. It was as if it inhaled it. It was gone in a flash.
★★★★★
Haha, JJ, sounds like my dog!!! So glad the pup enjoyed! 🙂
XOXO Lauren
It what it
Can the peanut butter be replaced with almond butter?
Hi Violet,
I haven’t tested this variation yet but it should work. Let me know how it goes!
XOXO Lauren
Almonds are NOT safe for dogs to consume! Do NOT substitute!
Not true in the slightest. Please do your research.
AKC says no to almonds https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/nutrition/can-dogs-eat-almonds/#:~:text=Almonds%20are%20a%20great%20snack,digest%20as%20easily%20as%20people.
Thanks, Bob. I did not know dogs shouldn’t eat almond butter in any significant amount. While it isn’t toxic, many dogs do have trouble digesting it. I don’t want to find out that my dog is one of them by giving her a bad tummy ache! Better to stick to something I know she can eat without trouble.
Just made these for my pup. No banana but she loved them anyway! Bananas & peanut butter are her favorite treats. Will definitely make again with banana. Thanks for sharing.
★★★★★
So glad you enjoyed them!!! They’re a staple here! 😀
Can I use a ripe frozen banana?
About how many large dog bone cutter- sized biscuits does this recipe make?
Hi Tyla!
This really depends on the size of your cutter, but if you end up making it please comment on the post so that others will know for their pups!
XOXO Lauren
I used a 3 inch cutter and made 28
★★★★★
So easy to make and such a fun way to bake for your pup! Love knowing the ingredients that go into what, not only I eat, but also my dog. So important to our good in to get food out and this recipe did the trick! Loved it!!
★★★★★
Hi Erin!
I’m so glad to hear that you and your pup loved the recipe! Happy Thursday!
XOXO Lauren
This is a super simple recipe that your dog will love and you can feel good about feeding them. Only tip is if you like them a little bit crunchier you can bake on a lower temp for a little bit longer. Would highly suggest!!!!
★★★★★
Hey Jennifer! Thanks so much for the review! Love the tip about the crunchier treats! Thanks!
XOXO Lauren
Can this treat be made with regular rolled oats or is it a must to use gluten free oats…..
Hi Nesia,
Yes! Non gluten-free oats will work! Let me know what you think.
XOXO Lauren
Lovely recipe I cut them down into training treats too! My little pup can’t do enough for me! X
Hi Beth,
I love the idea of using these are training treats! So glad you enjoyed!
XOXO Lauren
Could almond flour be used in the place of oak flour ????
Hi Betty! I haven’t tested this– it may make the treats too moist. If you try please let me know!
XOXO Lauren
I have used almond flour, and even my own almond pulp dried out from making almond milk. Great way to re-use the pulp.
Our pup loves it with almonds.
how many do they make
Hi! It depends on what cookie cutter you use. It makes anywhere from 24-36 treats.
My girl absolutely loved these treats! We will repeat this recipe ofte.n!
★★★★★
Ahhh, I’m so glad!!! Thanks for sharing, Marta!
XOXO Lauren
Awesome recipe. Why does it need to be refrigerated?
★★★★★
Hi Kevin! So glad that you enjoyed it! The treats are best refrigerated because they’re made without any preservatives and will keep longer if chilled!
XOXO Lauren
Very simple to make with ingredients on hand. My dog loved them and I might have had a few myself.
★★★★★

Hi Tammy,
I’m so glad they enjoyed them!!!
XOXO Lauren
Recently I made this recipe for Chelsea, my friend Shirley’s senior dog.
We actually enjoyed a few this coffee . I had added some bits of leftover steamed sweet potato which was a yummy addition.
Shirley shared some of the ‘cookies’ with her grown sons telling them afterward, that her friend had made the treats for the dog.
Every few weeks I make a batch of these treats for Chelsea and Shirley and I do enjoy them with tea or coffee.
Thanks so much for this simple, healthy and delicious recipe.
Hi Rosemary,
I loved that you added some leftover sweet potato here! Sounds delicious!
XOXO Lauren
I forgot to mention that I pulse only a half cup of oats, preferring an oatmeal type cookie texture.
Either way, the cookies are great.
Rosemary,
Thanks so much, I love this tip for cookies with more texture!
XOXO Lauren
How many Cookies does this bake?
Hi Erica!
The number of cookies depends on the size of the cookie cutter.
XOXO Lauren
Best,
Lauren
Don’t forget to read the labels on your peanut butter. Some brands contain xylitol which is toxic to dogs
★★★★
My 15 year old schnoodle loved these treats! I shared the recipe with two friends who just got new fur babies too!
★★★★★
Hi Jenne,
That makes me SO happy! Enjoy!!!
XOXO Lauren
while i was shopping for the ingredients to make this recipe, i had trouble finding peanut butter with no oils flavors or sugars. are there any brands you recommend?
Hi Kaitlyn,
My favorite brand is Crazy Richards if you can find it near you!
XOXO Lauren
My Labradoodle loves these and so does my grandson!!
I’m so glad they enjoy these! They’re so easy for everyone! 😀
Can they be left out on the counter?
Yes, they can, but only for 2-3 days. They don’t have any preservatives so they’re perishable. I recommend refrigerating them so they last up to one week or freezing for long term storage!
XOXO Lauren
I just made these for my pups !!! And they smell so good, I only had 1 cup of oats so I added 1/2 cup of coconut flour ! I may be crazy but I tried them and omg they are delicious, my dogs were sitting next to me the whole entire time I was making them 🙂 now I am waiting for the treats to cool off so I can feed them to my pups
★★★★★
My Labradoodle loves these and so does my grandson!!
Hi Jane,

XOXO Lauren
I also forgot to mention could my daughter sell these and if so how much do you think she should sell them for

We measured out 1 teaspoon portions and the recipe made 4 dozen cookies for our 2 small pupps. They love them.
★★★★★
Hi Shawn,
That sounds amazing! I’m so glad they enjoyed them!!!
XOXO Lauren
Very delicious but I dissapointed. I have three dogs and none of them loved it:( However, I love the taste, I am eating them with tea 🙂
Oh no! I’m so sorry your pups didn’t enjoy these! But glad that you do. 🙂
i’m keen to try this recipe – but arn’t you meant to soak the oats or let it soak up the moisture over night so the oats don’t expand in the pups tummy?
Hi Tif,
No, this isn’t necessary!
XOXO Lauren
Just made these for the doggies….. I added an egg and a tad of olive oil in the end……. they came out beautiful…… and the dogs loved them 🐕👌
Even the adults like them …… thanks for sharing this fabulous recipe!
Hi Jackie,
Yes, they’re so good for dogs and humans alike! i’m so glad that you enjoyed!
XOXO Lauren
Are they soft? My Yorkie has had his teeth removed.
Hi Ravina,
They’re on the crunchier end.
XOXO Lauren
Hi – I’ve used your recipe a couple of times now and my dogs just love their cookies! We have a rescue that we’re re-training so bribes…I mean treats…lol…are critical (especially with an 18 mo old Great Dane!)!!! I use your base oats, pb and banana, but I also add a pureed apple sometimes and some wheat flour if the dough is too wet. Just awesome, making another batch right now!
Marji
★★★★★
Hi Marji,
I’m so glad that you and the pups enjoyed these treats! I love the addition of pureed apple– I need to try that for sure!

★★★★★
My two Petit Brabançon pups (Joske and Eddie) adore these cookies! And so do I. 😉 Thank you for the recipe! Greetings from Belgium x
★★★★★
I had a little trouble at the end when I baked them, they came out very crumbly. Is it simply more peanut butter? I cooked at 350 for 10 minutes. then an extra 5 after the first one crumbled 🙁 any tips?
★★★★★
having trouble getting these not to crumble after baking. is the answer simply more peanut butter??? HALP!!!
★★★★★
I just made these with my youngest son (7) for my rat terrier and German Shepherd. They love the treats!
★★★★★
Made these for my boyfriends sister’s dog and she absolutely gobbled these up!!!!! I added a teaspoon of pumpkin since it helps dogs with digestion, next time I will add more since it you couldn’t tell much was added. But, the French bulldog loved them. Will definitely be making these again. Thanks for a great and healthy recipe 🙂
★★★★★
Made this for my dog last week with almond butter. My dog LOVES them!! Thank you for sharing your recipe 🙂
★★★★★
Do this have to be frozen?
★★★★★
Love this recipe and my pup loves his treat! I use grind puppy kibble for oatmeal and add 2eggs (3cups of kibble) in addition to banana and peanut butter. Perfect! Thanks for the recipe!
★★★★★
Should I be worried if they bottoms on some are not golden brown? They do seem to be a little more chewy because they were thicker but as long as I don’t have to worry about then going bad because of it I was just to to keep them that way.
★★★★★
Can you please share how you got these to work with a cookie cutter? The batter was way too sticky for me, even after I added more flour multiple times.

How many 1 tablespoon cookies would this make?
Hi Monica,
I haven’t measured, but I’d guess anywhere from 24-30 cookies.I hope this helps!
XOXO Lauren
Sensational!!! I pressed some banana yoghurt drops in and my dogs were lucky that I even shared!!!
I made about fifteen big bone cookies in my thermomix.
Thank you so much for sharing these.

Ronaele and Kuma
So easy and my dog (and husband!) love them! My dog won’t eat bananas, but he looveees these because of the peanut butter. I put a few semi-sweet chocolate chips on the tops of some of them for me and my husband. (No chocolate for puppy dogs!) Yum!
Hi Sarah,
Haha! So glad that your dog (and husband) approves! 🙂
XOXO Lauren
Do these have to be baked or can they go straight to the freezer? My vet makes similar ones but they don’t bake them.
Hi Maria!
Yes, these cookies should be baked!
XOXO Lauren
Is there any nutritional list. Like how many calories? Thanks my dogs love them
★★★★★
My dog loved these! I used my food processor for everything and cleanup was a cinch! I rolled them between 2 pieces of parchment and used a pizza cutter to cut them in small squares. My dog is a very picky eater. She’s on a vegetarian diet due to food allergies and these are great because there’s no animal protein in them. I can’t thank you enough for this recipe!
★★★★★
Thanks for a great post, I am off to read some more here.
Can I use wheat flour instead of oats?
I just made these and our Yellow Lab loves them. I have a rather large bone shaped cookie cuter (approx. 3 1/2” x 1 1/2”) and made 14 cookies. I used regular Skippy Super chunk peanut butter, frozen thawed ripe banana and Quaker rolled oats – not ground. Turned out just right.
★★★★★
Hi Sammy,
Thanks for the comment! I’m so glad that your yellow lab enjoyed them!
XOXO Lauren
Very Good! The Grand Dogs and the Nephew dog all agreed! Planning on making more and sending to the grand dog in Minnesota., I am sure he will love them too..
Thanks so much for sharing.

Hi Sandy,
You have to let me know what the grand dog thinks of them in Minnesota!

My mini dachshunds love them. I added some cinnamon and rolled it flat in a big baking sheet. Before baking I scored it into tiny squares so when baked I can just snap them apart. Then I put the separated cookies back on the sheet and pop in the freezer for a bit so they don’t stick together when I freeze them. I take out a few days at a time and they last a long time. My boys ring a bell for cookies constantly so they need to be small!
★★★★★
Hi Vicki,
I’m so glad that your pups enjoyed them! I love the idea of using the freezer– brilliant!

I am curious about this…….My dog has leaky gut. Are these gonna be ok for him? I read you should not give grains in instance of leaky gut. Thank you
Hi Linda,
I would inquire with a vet about this before trying.
Best,

These three ingredients cookies were simple and quick to make and my dogs and grand-dogs love them. Didn’t have a bone cookie cutter so used a shot glass and the cookies are the perfect size. Will definitely double the recipe next time!
Added a crumbled piece of leftover bacon from
breakfast, bacon makes everything taste better!
★★★★★
Hi Christine,
I’m so glad that you enjoyed them! Thanks for the review!
XOXO Lauren
Great recipe-thank you! I made a double batch and got about 150 one inch hearts, perfect for little party goodie bags. I plan to use this recipe all the time. I found if you like them crispy roll thinner, chewy then roll thicker. I used 1/4 inch as instructions say and thought it was a great mix between crisp and chew. Before rolling I sprinkled a little extra oat dust and it rolled great. Very versatile recipe, you aren’t going to mess it up by adding more of something to get the right consistency either. Thanks again for the recipe!

Thanks so much, Stacy!

I made these dog cookies and they were a big hit. I didn’t have a banana so I subbed 1/2 cup applesauce. I had to add a little more rolled oats so it wasn’t so sticky. Rolled them in balls and flattened with a fork. Gave them to friends and they said the dogs loved them. I also share with my neighbours Yellow Lab Déjà and she gobbled them up. This is such an easy recipe and love that I don’t have to use flour. I’m known as the dog cookie lady with all my dog friends.

My 12 year old daughter has made three batches just this week as the first batch disappeared very quickly by our dogs. She made some the second time using a 1 1/4″ bone cutter for her Aunty’s dogs and some 4″ for our dogs. She is thinking of selling them at markets along side my business. Thank you so much
Hi Katrina,
I’m so glad your daughter enjoyed this recipe! That makes me so happy! Let me know if she decides to sell them! Enjoy!

Hi Lauren, yes she has decided to sell them. Her and a friend love making these. Thank you for such a great recipe

FYI All rolled oats are gluten-free whether labeled that way or not.
Hi Barbara,
Thanks for the comment! Yes, naturally, but they can be contaminated while mixed with other grains on the machinery. I like certified gluten-free oats that are processed separately!
