Many people love coconut — and you can add most dogs to that list too! While we don’t know as much about coconut’s health benefits in dogs as we do for their human counterparts, it seems that the occasional coconut-based treat can be tasty and potentially offer a little boost for your pup.
Bring the snow indoors (without the cold) by making these no-bake coconut “snowball” treats. All you need is a food processor and a little room in your refrigerator to store them.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- ½ cup coconut flour
- 1 cup oat flour OR 1 cup of rolled oats
- 1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
- ¼ cup unsweetened peanut butter
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- Shredded coconut to roll the treats in
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in your food processor and pulse until a dough is formed.
- Scoop a handful of dough and form into balls at any size you prefer.
- Roll each ball in the shredded coconut with slight pressure to help the coconut stick to the dough.
- Keep refrigerated and enjoy within a week.
