I am 100% positive your pooch will love this combination of ginger and peanut butter in a delicious homemade dog treat. Mine sat in front of the oven the entire time because she couldn’t resist the smell!

Can dogs have ginger snaps?

No. Regular ginger snaps are bad for dogs because of their high fat and sugar content, which can lead to upset stomachs, heart disease and obesity in dogs.

The good news? While humanginger snaps are not safe for dogs to eat, this ginger snaps dog treat recipe is completely dog-friendly as it contains only pooch-safe ingredients!

That being said, these homemade dog treats are just that – treats only. They should be given in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

Is ginger goodfor a dog?

Wondering if ginger is toxic for dogs? Well you don’t have to worry, because dogs can eat ginger in small quantities on a regular basis.

Ginger has a host of health benefits for dogs, and contains anti-viral, non-toxic, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. Being rich in antioxidants, it can support your dog’s immune system.

Ginger is also gentle on dog’s stomachs and promotes healthy bowels. It’s one of the many reasons why ginger is a superfood for senior dogs!

How to make ginger snaps for dogs

Preheat oven to 165C.

1. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl and form a ball with the dough.

2. Roll the dough out until flat and use a cookie cutter to cut out the individual treats.I didn’t have a miniature cookie cutter on hand, so I just used a jar cap as a makeshift cutter. Feel free to get creative!

3. Place your treats onto your baking tray and bake for 25 minutes.

4. Turn oven off after the 25 minutes are done and leave the treats in the oven for 45 more minutes, or until crisp.

Handy hints!

* Makes approximately 20-30 treats (dependant on cookie cutter size).

* If you’re giving these dog treats as a gift, why not pop them in our DIY Dog Treat Jars as gifts for friends.

Enjoy!

** The above recipe is for treats only and should not replace your dog’s regular meal plans. Always check with your vet about any major changes to your dog’s diet.
