Ingredients and Their Health Benefits

  • 2 1/2 cups oat flour – Oat flour is rich in fiber and can be gentler on your dog’s stomach than wheat.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder – A small amount helps the biscotti rise for a better texture without upsetting your dog’s stomach.
  • 1 medium banana, mashed – Bananas are a great source of potassium and fiber, supporting digestion and heart health.
  • 2 large eggs – Eggs provide protein and essential amino acids, helping maintain muscle and coat health.
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened creamy peanut butter – Peanut butter (without xylitol) is a protein-rich treat that’s also packed with healthy fats for shiny fur and sustained energy.
  • 1 teaspoon melted coconut oil – Coconut oil supports your dog’s skin health and adds a hint of flavor.
  • 1/2 cup freeze-dried blueberries – Blueberries are packed with antioxidants and vitamins that boost your dog’s immune system.

Optional Glaze

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened carob chips – Carob is a dog-safe chocolate alternative, packed with fiber, calcium, and vitamins.
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil – Used to make the glaze smooth and adds a little extra flavor.

How to Make Dog Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix oat flour with baking powder.
  3. In a large bowl, mash the banana with a fork, then add eggs, peanut butter, and melted coconut oil. Stir until smooth and well combined.
  4. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing to form a dough.
  5. Fold in freeze-dried blueberries carefully.
  6. Divide the dough into two portions and shape each into a loaf (about 1–1½ inches tall and 3 inches wide). Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
  8. Slice each loaf diagonally into 1/2- to 1-inch thick pieces. Place back on the baking sheet, cut side down.
  9. Bake for another 20 minutes, then turn off the oven, allowing the biscotti to cool completely inside.

Optional Glaze

  1. In a microwave-safe container, combine carob chips with coconut oil.
  2. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Dip biscotti pieces into the glaze, drizzle over them, or spread a thin layer on one side. Place on parchment paper or a wire rack to cool.

Serving Size

Serving sizes vary based on your dog’s size and dietary needs. Large dogs may enjoy a whole biscotti, while smaller breeds benefit from smaller pieces. Be mindful of daily caloric intake to avoid overfeeding.

Storage and Shelf Life

Store biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. For glazed biscotti, place parchment paper between layers. To keep them fresh longer, freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

Can Humans Eat These Dog Treats?

Yes! These biscotti are made with safe, natural ingredients. However, they are tailored for canine taste buds, so while they’re safe, they may not be as flavorful as traditional human biscotti.
