Pumpkin can hold its own, and these 22 recipes prove it with crunchy biscuits, soft bites, frozen treats, pupcakes, and even sourdough dog biscuits.

As you will see, some of these homemade pumpkin dog treats without peanut butter need only a few ingredients, while others are worth saving for a slow afternoon in the kitchen.

The good thing about making DIY pumpkin dog treats is that if you have pure pumpkin in your pantry, then you’re already halfway done.

22 Homemade Pumpkin Dog Treats Without Peanut Butter

Dog pumpkin treats can be crunchy or soft, baked or frozen, four ingredients or two, and that range is the point.

Most of the recipes below are dog treats made with pumpkin puree from a can, though a couple start from pumpkin you cook yourself.

1. Banana Dog Treats Without Peanut Butter

Ingredients:

• ¾ cup pumpkin puree
• 1 ripe banana
• 1 egg
• ¼ cup oats
• 2 to 2½ cups coconut flour
• Green beans, cut in half

Procedure:

1. Mash the banana in a large bowl until mostly smooth, then stir in the pumpkin purée and egg until everything is evenly combined.
2. Add the oats and mix again.
3. Stir in the coconut flour a little at a time, using about 2 to 2½ cups, until the mixture turns into a soft dough that feels more like sugar cookie dough than batter.
4. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. Roll the dough into balls about the size of a ping pong ball, then flatten each one slightly with your hand.
6. If you like, press a fork lightly across the tops to add a little texture.
7. Arrange the treats on the baking sheet and push half a green bean into the top of each one to make a small pumpkin stem.
8. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the treats feel firm.
9. Let them cool completely before serving.

2. No Bake Pumpkin Dog Treats

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened, no added spices)
• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened, no artificial sweeteners)
• ½ cup cooked, shredded chicken (plain, no seasoning)
• ¼ cup rolled oats (or oat flour for a smoother texture)

Procedure:

1. Stir the pumpkin purée, Greek yogurt, and shredded chicken together in a bowl until everything is evenly mixed.
2. Add the oats a little at a time, stirring as you go, until the mixture holds its shape but is still soft enough to scoop.
3. Spoon out bite-sized portions onto a parchment-lined tray, then shape them into small balls or discs.
4. Freeze for at least two hours, or until the treats are firm all the way through.
5. Transfer them to an airtight container and keep them frozen for up to two months.

Somewhere in this list is a dough that ferments overnight on the counter, built on sourdough discard rather than fresh starter.

3. DIY Pumpkin Applesauce Dog Treats (Pretzels)

Ingredients:

• ¾ cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened, 100% pumpkin)
• ¼ cup applesauce (unsweetened)
• 2½ cups oat flour
• ¼ cup ground flaxseed
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
• 16 shelled pumpkin seeds (optional)

Procedure:

1. Mix the pumpkin purée and applesauce together first, then stir in the oat flour, flaxseed, and cinnamon if you’re using it.
2. Start with a wooden spoon, then use your hands just long enough to bring the dough together.
3. Try not to overwork it, since the more you handle it, the stickier it gets.
4. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a surface for shaping the pretzels. A silicone mat, parchment, wax paper, or a lightly floured counter will all work.
5. Divide the dough into 16 tablespoon-sized pieces.
6. Roll each one into a rope about 7½ inches long, roughly the length of a pencil.
7. Bend each rope into a U shape, cross the ends about 1½ inches down from the top, then cross them once more.
8. Fold the tips down onto the bottom curve and press gently so the pretzel holds its shape.
9. If you want a little pumpkin detail, press a shelled pumpkin seed into the top of each pretzel.
10. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the treats feel firm.
11. For a crisp outside with a softer center, let them cool on the counter.
12. For a crunchier treat, switch off the oven and leave them inside as it cools so more moisture can dry out.
13. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks or in the freezer for up to two months.
14. If kept at room temperature, use them within about two days.

4. Pumpkin Dog Treats No Peanut Butter

Ingredients:

• 4 strips bacon
• ½ cup (122g) pumpkin purée
• 1 large egg
• 2 cups + 2 tablespoons (323g) whole wheat flour
• ½ tablespoon baking powder
• 2 to 4 tablespoons (30 – 60mL) water or milk

Procedure:

1. Cook all four bacon strips until done, then transfer them to a plate to cool and pour the rendered grease into a medium bowl.
2. Roughly chop the bacon and add it to the bowl with the pumpkin purée and egg. Whisk everything together until well combined.
3. In a separate large bowl, whisk the flour and baking powder.
4. Pour in the wet mixture and stir gently, then add water or milk half a tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together. You’ll usually need 2 to 4 tablespoons, depending on how much grease the bacon produced.
5. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
6. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thick, cut out the treats, then gather the scraps, reroll, and keep cutting until all the dough is used.
7. Bake for about 30 minutes, flipping the treats halfway through so they cook evenly. You should get around 16 treats from one batch.

5. Soft Pumpkin Dog Treats Recipe

Ingredients:

• 3½ cups all-purpose flour (420g)
• 1 cup pumpkin purée (244g)
• 1 large egg
• ½ cup applesauce (113g)

Procedure:

1. Whisk the egg in a medium bowl, then stir in the applesauce and pumpkin. Add the flour and mix until no dry patches remain. You want a soft dough, not a stiff one.
2. Lightly flour the counter and knead the dough a few times until it feels even.
3. Roll it out to about ⅛ inch thick, cut your shapes, then gather the scraps, reroll, and keep cutting until all the dough is used.
4. Arrange the treats on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F gas mark 4 for about 18 minutes.
5. Let them cool completely on the baking sheet before giving one to your dog. They’ll puff slightly as they bake and stay soft rather than turning crisp.

6. 3 Ingredient Dog Treats Pumpkin

Ingredients:

• 3 cups old-fashioned oats (270g)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup pure pumpkin purée (227g)

Procedure:

1. Add the oats to a food processor and blend for 1 to 2 minutes, until they’re mostly flour with a few small pieces left for texture.
2. Add the pumpkin purée and eggs, then process again until the dough comes together evenly.
3. The dough may be a little sticky. You can turn it onto a lightly floured surface and work in a small amount of flour, or roll it between two sheets of parchment to avoid adding any extra.
4. Roll the dough to about ⅛ inch thick and cut out your shapes. A 2-inch bone cutter works well.
5. Place the treats on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then reroll the scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.
6. Bake at 350°F gas mark 4 for 16 to 18 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.

7. Sourdough Discard Pumpkin Dog Biscuits

Ingredients:

• 200g sourdough discard (about ¾ cup)
• 150g pumpkin puree (about ⅔ cup)
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp olive oil or coconut oil
• 1 tsp cinnamon (optional, check with your vet if suitable for your dog)
• 200g rolled oats (about 1¾ cups, or grind them in a food processor for less texture)
• 50g spelt (about ⅓ cup, or use whole wheat or soft white wheat flour)

Procedure:

1. About 8 to 12 hours before baking, mix the sourdough discard, pumpkin purée, egg, and oil in a bowl until smooth. Add the cinnamon here if you’re using it.
2. Stir in the oats, then add the spelt flour gradually until you have a soft dough that is firm enough to roll without feeling dry. If it still seems too wet, add a little more flour.
3. Cover the bowl loosely and leave the dough at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours, or overnight, to ferment.
4. When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thick.
6. Cut it into bones, hearts, circles, or simple squares, then arrange the pieces on the baking sheet.
7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the biscuits feel firm and start to turn lightly golden.
8. For a crunchier texture, lower the oven to 200°F and bake them for another 20 to 30 minutes to dry them out further.
9. Let the treats cool completely on a wire rack. They should stay crisp for a few days, and if they soften, a short return to the oven can help bring the crunch back.

Chamomile tea and a honey glaze turn up in precisely one recipe here, and it was originally made for a pug’s birthday.

Let ChefPaw Handle Your Dog’s Dinner

Preparing treats can be easy, however, making a complete meal for your dog every day is where the routine starts to feel like work.

That’s the gap the ChefPaw Dog Food Maker fills.

It combines a blender, mixer, scale, and cooker in one countertop machine, producing up to 6.4 pounds of food, around 11 to 12 cups, in about 40 minutes.

You can weigh ingredients directly in the bowl using the built-in scale, which resets between additions, so there is no need to measure everything separately.

The 12 mixing speeds also give you control over texture.

Lower settings keep the food chunky, while higher ones can turn it into a smoother puree for dogs that tend to pick around vegetables.

The companion app includes more than 75 recipes developed with licensed veterinarians, veterinary nutritionists, and CVFTs.

It tracks 68 nutrients across the meal plan and prompts you to add heat-sensitive supplements after cooking.

Ingredients like pumpkin, oats, and sweet potato are included in the nutrient analyzer too, so you can see how substitutions affect the overall recipe.

Cleanup is mostly hands-off. Add water and a small amount of dish soap, select the P05 cleaning cycle, and let the machine handle the rest.

ChefPaw estimates the cost at around $1.81 per pound, and the machine comes with a two-year warranty and a 90-day money-back guarantee.

Conclusion

After you have seen the above 22 recipes, we hope you can now see how peanut butter probably feels a lot less essential than it did at the start.

The only thing you need to decide now is what your dog gets first! Something crisp enough to crunch, a softer biscuit, or one of the frozen options tucked away for later.

Start with the recipe that fits what you already have in the kitchen, then keep the successful ones in rotation.

As always, have your dog’s allergens in mind when making homemade foods and treats to prevent negative reactions. Happy Baking!
