No Bake Peanut Butter Oat Dog Treats

Here’s a super-easy dog treat recipe that doesn’t require any baking and only 4 ingredients that you most likely have around the kitchen.  These mouth-watering treats take minutes to make and are a simple but delicious treat.

¾ cup peanut butter
1 ¼ cup oats
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup water

Mix peanut butter, cinnamon and water together vigorously until ingredients are combined. Add extra water if necessary (mixture should be thick).

Slowly stir in the oats, 1/4 cup at a time, mashing them into the mixture.

Scoop out the balls using a fruit scooper or your hands to form 1 inch round treats.

Place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 1-3 hours.

Simple but irresistible– your dogs will shower you with peanut butter kisses

Store in refrigerator in closed plastic container. Stays good for 2 weeks or up to 2 months in the freezer.

This recipe makes 20-25 "Treats" and is easily doubled, saving a clean up!

*Medicine Tip*
You can also use this PB mixture to feed your dogs medicine. Though you can’t insert pills and refrigerate ahead of time (the pills could dilute), you can keep the mixture in a refrigerated plastic bag. When it’s time to give the pill, stuff it into a smaller ball using the mixture. Dogs will gobble their meds right up!

  1. Gave all the puppies a choice between the No Bake, Peanut Butter Cookies and Snicker Poodles. The boys prefer the No Bake and Miss Riley opted for the Snicker Poodle. Kody LOVES peanut butter and these No Bakes are mostly peanut butter so that was a no brainer!!!
