Doggie Biscotti Banana Treats

I made these for my little poodle who turns his nose up to just about everything but not these, he just loved them! just make certain that the containers are labeled doggie treats, these smell so good that someone might be tempted to eat one lol! It is also a great way to use up any leftover ripe bananas --- the brown sugar is only optional I like to add it in! :)

I don't have any dogs myself, but I made these for my neighbour's 14 year old black Lab as a treat. He LOVED it! I didn't have enough wholemeal flour, so I used 1 cup plain flour, 1 cup oats and 3 cups wholemeal flour and I skipped the egg wash. Since he's diabetic, I left out the brown sugar and maple extract, added in a pinch of cinnamon instead (I made sure it was safe to use). Had a wonderful smell while baking! Thank you, Kittencal, for sharing yet another one of your wonderful recipes, I have already passed on the recipe to my neighbour. And, a BIG thank you from Blacky! :)Reply

This recipe is a hit! I included them for the doggie family members in the Christmas gift baskets I have put together for my family and friends this year. So far, they're VERY popular. Easy recipe. I changed two things- I added a little peanut butter and used vanilla instead of maple flavoring. And hey, they're made with good, wholesome ingredients, so they could be people food, too!! And my kids even like them!! ;) Thanks for sharing this recipe with us.Reply
