Before you get started
What you will need
- 3-4 ripe bananas
- 1 can coconut milk or dairy-free coconut yoghurt
- About 200g peanut butter
- Small bone-shaped biscuits
-
Some silicone cupcake or ice cube trays

Method
Instructions
Chop the bananas
Chop up your bananas into chunks.
Blend the mixture
Blend the bananas, coconut milk/yoghurt and peanut butter. If you don’t have a blender, you can use a bowl and fork to mash the ingredients together.
Put it in the freezer
Pour the mixture into your trays and place them in the freezer until they’re partly frozen (usually about an hour).
Add a dog biscuit
Take them out of the freezer carefully and push a dog bone biscuit into each one, like a lolly stick!
Put back in the freezer
Put them back in the freezer until they’re completely solid.
Store your ice cream
Once they’re frozen, you can pop the ‘ice creams’ out of their trays, put them into plastic containers or bags and store them in the freezer.
Give to your dog!
Don’t forget to give one to your dog to try!
