You will love these easy homemade dog pancakes recipe! I absolutely love making homemade food for John John. Not only because it’s fun and he loves it so much, but I know he’s getting much better food or treats if I make them! Ingredients really matter, and especially for your dog! They live such short lives as it is, so I want I make it the best it can be for his health long term so he can live happily for the longest time he can.

My Waffle Recipe for Dogs is one of John John’s all time faves, he loves this homemade dog treat! And he has recently taken up a blueberry obsession. So, I knew he'd love these Blueberry Pancakes for Dogs just as much!

Blueberries are a superfood for your dog, just like they are for you! There are so many health benefits to eating blueberries (for humans and dogs), not to mention they are delicious in pancakes! To make these homemade dog pancakes, I use a mix of all purpose flour, baking powder, banana, coconut oil, honey, eggs, coconut milk, and blueberries!

These Blueberry Pancakes for Dogs are pancakes you can also eat too, making them the best weekend brunch that you can make and share with your dog! They have no sugar, but instead a little bit of honey, which is all they need. If you’re eating them as well then they’ll sweeten right up with a drizzle of maple syrup. And if you’re making them for your dog then skip the maple syrup and top them with a little bit of peanut butter for them instead!

Ingredients & Health Benefits

  • Bananas: I use organic bananas here, this is the base for these pancakes. Bananas have potassium, fiber, vitamin C, B vitamins and more for your pup!
  • Honey: I use organic raw honey. Honey is antimicrobial and antibacterial, it can help with your dogs allergies too.
  • Eggs: Organic eggs provide omega 3 fatty acids for your dog and can help their skin and coat!
  • Coconut Milk: Organic coconut milk can also improve your dogs skin and coat. This is my top choice for milk for dogs, as cow's milk can be inflammatory and almond milk is a big no no as dog's cannot digest almonds like we can! So please don't give your dog almond milk! Make sure you are using organic coconut milk with minimal ingredients like this one here. Stay away from ones with added flavors, sweeteners, or stabilizers.
  • Coconut Oil: I use organic coconut oil which can help improve your dog's skin, brain health, and digestion.
  • All Purpose Flour: Cairnspring Mills Organic All Purpose Flour is what I use for these, the same flour I use for myself! Dogs can have healthy carbs like organic flour in moderation, such as treats like this. Be sure you are buying organic.
  • Baking Powder: You'll need a little bit of baking powder, this makes pancakes fluffy.
  • Blueberries: Organic blueberries are a superfood for your dog! Blueberries have antioxidants, cancer fighting properties, and can improve their gut health. They can eat blueberries every day!

FAQ's

Can I use another kind of oil?

No, stick to coconut oil for this recipe as it’s the safest for dogs to eat! Other oils like avocado oil or olive oil can be okay for dogs in very small amounts, but not in a recipe like this. So stick to organic coconut oil!

What if my dog is gluten free?

You can use a gluten free flour in place of all purpose flour. Look for the swap in the notes at the bottom of the recipe. A good gluten free flour for dogs is the Namaste Organic Perfect Flour Blend.

Can I eat homemade dog pancakes?

Yes! These homemade dog pancakes are safe for you to eat too, and they’re delicious! If you have a baby or kid where you’re limiting sugar, these are also a great recipe for them as they are sugar free.

How should I store homemade dog pancakes?

Homemade dog pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze them and then thaw at room temperature to give as treats later.

How should I feed my dog homemade pancakes?

These Blueberry Pancakes for Dogs can be given to your dogs as treats. Just break off a piece and give it to them like you would a normal treat. Make sure to give them small pieces that they can chew, just like any other treat you give them.

You can also add these Blueberry Pancakes for Dogs on top of their food as a meal topper. Or you can mix into their food as well. I mix it into my Chicken Dinner Recipes for Dogs for John John and he loves it mixed right in!
