Ingredients
Scale
For the Blueberry Puree:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened and xylitol-free)
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Prepare the Blueberry Puree: Add the blueberries and water to a small blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Mix the Yogurt Mixture: In a separate bowl, stir the yogurt and honey (if using) until well combined.
- Fill the Molds: Spoon a small amount of the blueberry puree into silicone dog paw molds, then top with the yogurt mixture.
- Create the Swirl: Use a toothpick or small spoon to gently swirl the layers together for a marbled effect.
- Freeze the Treats: Tap the mold lightly to remove air bubbles. Freeze for at least 3 hours or until solid.
- Serve: Once frozen, pop the treats out of the molds and store in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
- Make sure to use plain Greek yogurt with no added sugar or artificial sweeteners.
- Honey is optional and should be used sparingly, especially for dogs under one year old.
- These treats are intended as occasional snacks and should be given in moderation.
