Bonding through baking: Dr. T’s Tasty treats

A wonderful way to get toddlers and little kids excited about feeding their pet safe foods is to make food they can share. I came up with this recipe for my kids to share with our dog because it is a tasty and healthy treat for kids and dogs alike.

Ingredients:

1 ripe banana

1 cup of oats 

1 Tbsp of coconut oil 

1 Tbsp of peanut butter (make sure it does not contain xylitol)

Directions: 

With the help of a parent, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mash the banana in a bowl. Once mashed, add in the remaining ingredients, and mix. Mold the mixture into any shape and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes at 350 degrees F.
