Ingredients
Method
- Add the blackberries, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, water or coconut water, and honey (if using) to a blender.
- Blend on medium-high speed until mostly smooth with small berry specks and a pourable consistency.
- If the mixture is too thick to pour, blend in an additional 1 tbsp water at a time until it flows easily.
- Pour the mixture into silicone molds, ice cube trays, or dog-safe popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
- Place the filled molds in the freezer and freeze for 4 hours, or until completely solid.
- Once frozen, pop the treats out of the molds and transfer them to a labeled freezer-safe container or zip-top bag.
- Serve 1–2 frozen sticks to your dog as a cool treat, and keep the remaining treats stored in the freezer.
Notes
- Use only plain, unsweetened, xylitol-free Greek yogurt, as xylitol and added sugars are unsafe for dogs.
- Skip the honey for puppies, diabetic dogs, or dogs that need to limit sugar.
- Introduce new treats slowly and in small amounts, especially if your dog is not used to dairy or chia seeds.
- Serve straight from the freezer after walks, play sessions, or on hot days as a cool-down snack.
- Store frozen treats in an airtight container or bag in the freezer for up to 2 months.
