DIY Frozen Apple Dog Treat Recipe

September 8, 2014 By Irresistible Pets 67 Comments

I’m excited to share this frozen apple dog treat recipe with you. This dog treat recipe is the perfect late Summer/early Fall treat. They’ll cool your dog down on a hot afternoon while incorporating everyone’s favorite Fall fruit, apples! Apples are good for dogs as they are a healthy and natural dog treat packed with fiber, vitamin A and vitamin C.

I simply adore the Fall season and apples remind me of our anniversary trip to Charlottesville last year when we visited an apple orchard with Chuy.  If you love apples be sure to also check out our DIY Apple Peanut Butter Dog Treats and 25 Irresistible Apple Recipes for Dogs.

2. Mix the apple slices, yogurt, and a splash of water in your NutriBullet or blender and blend until you get a liquid consistency.

3. Pour the mixture into an ice cube tray and freeze for a few hours or until hard.

The final product should look something like this. I recommend only feeding your dog one “cube” at a time.  You can put the left over treats into a Tupperware container and store them in the freezer.

Chuy absolutely loves these frozen apple dog treats! I love making him homemade treats that are healthy and natural. Plus, I love when I know exactly what’s going into his treats which is another reason I love making my own at home.

    I never thought to make dog treats with apples. I’ve added your recipe to my dog treats board on Pinterest. Dropped in via Crystal and Kelli’s Facebook group.

    My dogs love apples, and they love ice cubes so I bet they’d love these. Heck, add a little sugar and I’d probably eat them!

    OMG, just found your site via pinterest and am in love. I run a massive bakery for our Humane Society’s annual fundraiser. We have about 10,000 dogs and their owners coming thru. This year was my first year running it and I ran out of doggie treats. I will be spending a lot of time here planning for next year. What a lovely site you have, the layout is gorgeous and your pics are amazing. Loving your doggie. Thank you

    Some dogs are sensitive to dairy products. My Chihuahua had to go to the emergency room after drinking milk the first time because she became so constipated. Apples, preferably organic, cut in little pieces are good enough and a much safer choice.

      Oh no 🙁 I’m sorry to hear that. I recommend always checking with a vet before introducing any new food to your dog’s diet.

    This is fantastic for summer! My Chihuahua loves icecubes when it’s hot, he’ll go crazy over these! Great idea!
    If you’re into homemade doggy treats, here’s another very simple recipe:
    1 little can of natural tuna
    1 egg
    4 tablespoons of oatflakes
    2 tablespoons of flour (I use spelt flour cause I don’t like wheat, alternatively you can also use corn flour)
    some chopped up parsley
    finely grated carrots (I use the remainders of my juicer, works perfectly!)

    mix it all together, you’ll have a gooey dough. With cold hands make little fingerlong sticks and bake for about 20 minutes at 180°C (350°F)

    I just made this recipe for the first time. My dog eats all these components separately so I knew he’d love it and he’d did. Only problem was, he picked up the whole cube and took it to his “staging area”, where he crunched it down in a couple of bites. This is not exactly the intention of this recipe, so my question is, do you have any suggestions for what I could put this in so he can’t get it out and he has to lick it? Thanks!

    Made these for our dog. I’m sure he’ll love them. Labs eat anything. I wonder tho’ why add water to it to dilute it. If I make this again I will just use regular yogurt and skip the water.

    Hello! I am new to being a dog mom but was wondering what kind of yogurt ( Brand wise) I could use for this recipe? I do want to make all my babies treats homemade and healthy!

      Hi Brenda,
      Any brand of yogurt will work. I just like to make sure it is fat free plain greek yogurt.

    Our blender broke in the middle so there is chunks of peel in it haha Laila likes them though, she was sitting in the kitchen the whole time. She got to lick the spoon. I love how easy it is thanks for posting it.
