Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe banana mashed An excellent source of potassium, vitamin B6, and fiber, promoting healthy digestion and providing natural sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons natural, raw honey Offers antibacterial properties and a touch of energy-boosting sweetness. Ensure it's raw and natural, as processed honey can contain additives harmful to dogs.
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce Adds moisture and fiber, aiding in digestion and providing a small dose of vitamins.
  • 1/4 cup unsalted peanut butter A great source of healthy fats and protein for energy. Crucially, ensure it is xylitol-free, as xylitol is toxic to dogs.
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour Provides complex carbohydrates for sustained energy and dietary fiber.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Helps the biscuits rise and achieve a pleasant texture.
