Pancakes – they’re the breakfast favorite of many, and for good reason. Soft, fluffy, and perfect with a little drizzle of honey or a dollop of fruit. But what about our furry companions? Can dogs join in on the pancake fun? Of course, they can! With the rise of dog-friendly treats, including specially crafted dog pancakes, even the pickiest pups can enjoy a taste of the good stuff. Let’s dive into some paws-itively delicious doggy pancake ideas!

1. Homemade Doggy Pancakes

For dog parents who love to cook up something special for their four-legged friends, making homemade pancakes is a simple and fun way to treat them. This Doggy Pancakes Recipe from The Cook & Him is perfect for both beginner and seasoned chefs alike.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe banana
• 2 medium eggs (free-range, of course!)
• 1/4 cup peanut butter (no sweeteners like xylitol)
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tbsp ground flax seeds
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup milk or plain yogurt
• Coconut oil or olive oil for cooking
• Optional: 1/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions:

• Blend all the ingredients (minus the blueberries) until smooth and thick.
• Heat coconut or olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat.
• Spoon in some pancake batter, cooking a few at a time. If you’re using blueberries, drop a few on top of the batter before flipping.
• Once the pancakes bubble, flip them and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes.
• Let them cool before serving to your pup. Store leftovers in the fridge or freeze for later!

Note: When selecting peanut butter, always double-check the label for sweeteners, as some (like xylitol) are toxic to dogs.
