17 Apart's Diy Dog Treat Recipe is Sweetened with Banana and Carrot
Laura McQuarrie — February 5, 2015 — Lifestyle
Rather than running to the store for replacement pet snacks, the creative minds behind the 17 Apart blog whipped up a wholesome DIY dog treat recipe. If you're a baker, you'll most likely have all of the ingredients for these carrot and banana dog treats in your kitchen already.
As 17 Apart advises, the best part about the recipe is the simple base, which leaves a lot of room for you to play around with other natural food combinations in place of the bananas or carrots. Plus, since all of the ingredients are fit for human consumption, there's no harm in nibbling on a few of your own experiments—they might be a little bland to your tastebuds, but at least you know everything in them is 100% natural.
