Puppy Peep-sicles

Spring hasn’t really started until that first bite of fluffy, marshmallow-y goodness, right? We wanted to give the pups a little Peep-magic this spring, so we found this healthy, pup-friendly Peep-sicles recipe. It’s easy, healthy, and was a hit with both of our dogs.

RECIPE: HEALTHY EASTER PEEPS FOR DOGS

Try these festive treats for a pup-friendly spin on an Easter classic. Makes two batches.

Prep Time: 10 Minutes. | Freeze Time: Two Hours.

INGREDIENTS:

1.5 cups of frozen strawberries

1 tablespoon peanut butter

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt nonfat

2/3 cup water

Blackberry jam (optional, for eyes)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1) Combine frozen strawberries, peanut butter, yogurt, and water in a blender. Blend until mix is smooth and a little runny—like a smoothie.

2) Pour mixture into molds and place in freezer for two to three hours, or until Peeps are hard.

3) Remove tray from freezer and flip upside-down to remove. 

4) Optional, dip a pin in dark blackberry jam to create eyes and nose. It can help to freeze again after this step.

*Note: I used a hard polycarbonate tray, so if you used a silicone tray the removal process might be slightly different.
