National Peach Month: 6 Yummy Peach Dog Treat Recipes To Celebrate

August is National Peach Month — a perfect time to share a juicy, sweet peach treat with your dog!

Peaches are full of healthy vitamins and nutrients for your pooch. They contain fiber and antioxidants that are good for dogs, but like all good things, peaches are best served in moderation.

Too many peaches can cause gastrointestinal upset and diarrhea for some dogs, so limit serving sizes and ask your veterinarian before serving any human foods, including peaches, to your pup.

Here are six delicious peach dog treat recipes for you and your dog to try during National Peach Month.

A few words of caution before you begin:

  • None of these treats are meant to meet your dog’s full nutritional requirements. Therefore, they should only be given as sometimes-treats.
  • Make sure you use real, fresh, organic peaches that are thoroughly washed before serving. Remove the stem and pit because these can cause choking or gastrointestinal blockages.
  • Do not use canned peaches or artificial peach flavoring because these can contain added sugar or sweeteners that can make your dog sick.
  • Some dogs can be allergic to peaches, so it is always important to consult your veterinarian before feeding them to your dog.

With all of that out of the way, enjoy making these fun recipes!

1. Peaches N’ Cream Fro-Yo Treats

Ingredients:

Directions:

First, cut the peaches into small pieces and mix them in a bowl with the yogurt. Then, add the water and blend. You can either blend the mixture until it is smooth, or you can leave it chunky if you think your dog would prefer some bigger bits of peach in their treats.

After that, pour the mixture into an ice tray or mold and freeze. Once they’re frozen, pop them out and serve. These are refreshing treats for a hot summer day.

Ingredients:

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, then puree the diced peaches. Mix the peaches with the honey and flour until the mixture becomes a dough. Roll the dough onto a floured surface until it is 1/4 inch thick, then use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes.

Place the shapes onto a baking sheet and prick each shape with a fork. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes, then let them cool completely before serving.

3. Frozen Peach Sticks

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound peaches (skin and pit removed)
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/8 cup corn starch
  • 3 cups oats
  • 2 tablespoons raw honey

Directions:

Place the water and peaches in a pot and heat until the water boils. Reduce the heat to low and let the peaches simmer for 30 minutes or until they’re soft. Once the peaches are soft, mash them with a potato masher and return them to low heat.

Put the corn starch in a separate bowl and slowly add cold water while stirring (no more than 1/4 cup) until the corn starch is just barely dissolved. Add the corn starch to the peaches and stir. It will thicken quickly. Then, add the honey and oats, and stir.

Refrigerate the mixture until it’s cold. Once the mixture is cold and a little firm, roll it into several long, log-like shapes. Roll the shapes into some more oats until they’re coated, then freeze. Once the “sticks” are frozen, remove from the freezer and serve.

4. Peanut Butter Peach Frozen Pops

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (with NO xylitol)
  • 3 cups plain yogurt
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 peach

Directions:

Peel the banana and place it in a blender. Cutting it into smaller pieces can help it blend more easily. Add the yogurt, peanut butter, and peach (again, cut up for easier blending), and then blend all the ingredients together.

After that, pour the mixture into an ice tray or mold and freeze. Once they’re frozen, remove the treats and serve for a cool, refreshing snack. Take a look at the video above if you need more guidance.

5. Peach Oatmeal Dog Cookies

Ingredients:

Directions:

Firstly, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Stir the oats and 1/2 cup of water into a large bowl. In a food processor or blender, puree the peaches, canola oil, molasses, and vanilla with 1/8 cup of water. Then, stir the blended mixture into the oats. Add the flour, cinnamon, and 1/8 cup of water and stir it all together.

Scoop the mixture onto a baking sheet and form it into small, flat cookie shapes. Bake for 15 minutes, then turn off the oven and let the cookies cool. Once they’ve cooled down, remove the cookies from the baking sheet and serve.
