Is Ice Cream Safe for Dogs?
Human ice cream is not advisable for dogs due to the sugar and additives. Too much dairy can give them digestive upsets too. As for chocolate ice cream that is just a big no.
What Ice Cream is Safe for Dogs?
Making your own ice cream with frozen yogurt is a better option. You can serve just plain yogurt or add a few dog safe fruits or sugar free peanut butter.
Low fat natural or Greek yogurt can be used to make the doggie ice cream. I sometimes use live coconut yogurt too. As with all dog treats, small portions as a treat should be given. Even when they give you those adorable puppy eyes!
Ingredients
Just 3 simple ingredients make this tasty doggie ice cream recipe.
- Peanut Butter – A tasty and protein-rich ingredient that dogs love! Make sure to use natural, unsweetened peanut butter without xylitol, as it can be toxic to dogs. Peanut butter adds a creamy texture and healthy fats to the ice cream.
- Banana – A naturally sweet and nutritious fruit that provides potassium, fiber, and vitamins like B6 and C. Bananas help create a smooth consistency while adding a mild sweetness that dogs enjoy.
- Greek Yogurt – A probiotic-rich dairy product that supports gut health and digestion. Choose plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt to avoid added sugars or artificial sweeteners. Its creamy texture makes it the perfect base for dog-friendly ice cream. For a dairy-free version swap the Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt
How to make peanut butter dog ice cream
This banana peanut butter dog ice cream recipe is as easy as making a no churn ice cream recipe for yourself. Simply mix or blend the ingredients and freeze. To serve you may need to let the ice cream melt as it can become a bit icy.
Mash the banana and peanut butter together.
Add the Greek yogurt.
Mix until combined.
Pour into containers and freeze.
Storage
Once you’ve made the ice cream, transfer it to an airtight container to keep it fresh and prevent freezer burn. Store it in the freezer for up to 1-2 weeks.
For easy serving, consider freezing the ice cream in silicone molds, ice cube trays, or cupcake liners. This way, you can grab just the right amount for your dog and defrost it quickly when needed.
It’s best to avoid refreezing the ice cream after it has thawed because it can change the texture and make it less enjoyable for your dog. Only thaw what you’ll serve at one time.
If storing in a container, make sure the surface is covered with a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap before sealing the lid to minimize air exposure, which helps preserve its quality.
