Get the pooches involved this Pancake Day with Pooch & Mutt. Because if you’re flipping pancakes, your dog will be right there hoping for a bite. Our dog-friendly pancake recipe is a simple way for owners to share the tradition safely, with easy ingredients and pup-approved topping ideas.
The Pooch & Mutt pancake recipe for dogs is super simple:
- Mash a ripened banana with a fork until it’s a smooth consistency.
- Add an egg and 100g flour*, beating until a smooth batter forms.
- Fry like a classic pancake or use a waffle maker.
- If frying, use a small amount of coconut or olive oil. Oil spray is a great option, as only a few drops are needed to grease the pan and prevent sticking – making it a healthier way to cook for your pooch. For dogs prone to pancreatitis, steer clear of the oil altogether!
*Swap plain flour to coconut or almond flour if grain-sensitive.
Topping ideas (sweet or savoury):
- Xylitol-free peanut butter, a little honey, berries, apple, mango
- Or savoury options like spinach, carrot, peas, broccoli (and a little cheese in moderation)
- Tasty Pooch & Mutt Meaty Treats
- Fillers can also include things such as Salmon Oil or Supplement Powders
Ingredients to avoid:
Grapes, raisins, chocolate, macadamia nuts, lemon and limes and sugary syrups. Go easy on dairy creams too as many adult dogs are lactose intolerant.
