What a great recipe! I can’t wait to try these! It says it makes 20 but I only have 1 dog. Should they be stored in the refrigerator and how long do they last?

Thanks! They can be stored at room temperature (or the fridge for hot days) and best consumed within the week. Or you can freeze them and then thaw later on 🙂

We just made these tonight and the dogs went wild!!! First off please pay attention to the directions and don’t take shortcuts like we and just food process the oats..MISTAKE you MUST COMBINE ALL INGREDIENTS for it to work or you will not get a solid like consistency to form into ball. We DIDN”T follow directions and it wouldn’t form into a ball no matter how many oats we added!!! NOW we did correct our mistake and added it all into the food processor as the directions state and VOILA it WORKED!!! Now we have lovely treats in the fridge all ready for bedtime snacks.

These are high in saturated fat and calories, especially for little guys or ones prone to pancreatitis. Something more vegetable based might be better.

Hi Evan, They’re definitely designed for treats only, and we have lots of vegetable based treats in our recipe section – hope you can check them out! 🙂

Hi Serena,
The recipe looks fantastic but any substitution suggestion for the peanut butter?
Thanks.

Mine did not stick together. I even added more peanut butter and coconut oil. I ended up putting the mixture in a baking pan and pressing it in. AFter I refrigerated it I tried cutting in squares and it fell apart. What did I do wrong? The dogs do like it but I have to feed them the loose oats.

Did you use the oil as a liquid or in solid form?
