This Banana Bread for Dogs is a wholesome and tasty treat made with dog-safe ingredients like oat flour, ripe banana, and coconut milk. Perfect for pet owners looking to bake a healthy, homemade snack for their furry friends, this recipe avoids any harmful additives and uses gentle baking methods to keep the bread soft and flavorful.

  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 2 mini loaves (about 8 small slices)

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1½ cups Oat Flour
  • ¾ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 Ripe Banana
  • 1 Egg
  • ¼ cup Coconut Milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Prepare your mini loaf pans by greasing them with coconut oil if they are not non-stick, or line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the oat flour, baking soda, and ground cinnamon thoroughly to ensure even distribution of leavening and spice.
  3. Mash Banana: In a separate mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth and creamy, creating a natural sweet base for the bread.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: To the mashed banana, add the egg and coconut milk. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet banana mixture. Use a mixer or a sturdy spoon to blend the batter until homogenous and without lumps.
  6. Divide Batter: Evenly divide the batter between the two prepared mini loaf pans, smoothing the top to ensure even baking.
  7. Bake the Bread: Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating doneness.
  8. Cool the Bread: Remove the loaves from the pans and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely to room temperature before slicing and serving to your dog.

Notes
