How do you make Air Fryer Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treats?

Eggs, peanut butter, and pumpkin puree added to a glass bowl to make Air Fryer Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treats

Add the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, and eggs to a large mixing bowl and mix until fully combined.

The ingredients all mixed up in the glass bowl to make Air Fryer Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treats

Add in 1 cup of flour and mix until combined. Add in another cup of the flour and mix until a doughy mixture forms.

Adding flour to the rest of the ingredients to make Air Fryer Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treats

Knead the dough by hand and add the remaining flour as needed, until the dough reaches a soft, but not sticky or crumbly consistency.

The dough for dog biscuits laid out in flour ready to roll out and cut.

Lay out a large piece of parchment paper and sprinkle lightly with flour before transferring the dough onto the prepared surface.

Cutting out the dog treats with a bone cookie cutter.

Roll out with a rolling pin (or glass) to about ¼-inch thickness.

Cut out as many cookies as you can with your cookie cutter. I used the bone cookie cutter and then set them aside on a cookie sheet.

Laying the dog biscuits on parchment paper in an air fryer basket.

Line the bottom of your air fryer with parchment paper and place as many treats as you can in the bottom without them touching. I was able to fit 6-7 at a time in my particular air fryer.

Cook on 370 F degrees for 4-5 minutes or until just lightly browned on the top. Remove the treats and let them cool for a few minutes before offering one to your doggo!

These come out as a softer treat, but If you want a crunchy treat, increase your cook time by 3 minutes or until the treat has reached the right consistency.

Continue cooking the treats until they’re all done. Store in an airtight container away from moisture and heat.

Tips for Making these Air Fryer Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Treats

It’s important that you only use natural peanut butter with no added sugar and zero xylitol. Xylitol is toxic to dogs and added sugar can mess with their blood sugar. Natural peanut butter options are easy to find in just about any grocery store.
You can use all purpose flour or wheat flour. Both are safe for dogs.
If your air fryer doesn’t let you set it to 370, use 365 instead. If it also doesn’t have that setting, use the next closest, as long as that option isn’t very far over the suggested temperature.
Each air fryer is shaped differently and can hold varying amounts. I have multiple air fryers and this particular one is only 4 quarts, but due to its shape, it’s great for holding 6-7 of these treats at a time. If your air fryer doesn’t hold that many, that’s perfectly ok, just add as many as it will hold.
If you are cooking only a couple dog treats at a time in a larger air fryer, the treats will want to curl. I don’t know why this happens, but they still taste great for your doggie even if they look a little strange.
You can make a smaller batch of these dog treats, just cut the recipe in half.
Be sure to not have extra parchment paper that goes up the walls of your air fryer. You want it to lay flat in the bottom or it will have the potential to have a corner fall over the treats.
It’s important to note that these treats won’t cook the same as an oven treat. However, they can be cooked in an oven, if desired.
