- 1/4 banana
Liquid Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) plain unsweetened yogurt
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) water or low-sodium dog broth
Instructions
- Roast or steam the sweet potato until fork-tender, approximately 20-25 minutes at 375°F. Let cool completely before peeling and transforming into a soft, creamy mash.
- Transfer the velvety sweet potato mash into a high-powered blender, combining it with rich peanut butter, tangy yogurt, hydrating liquid, and ripe banana for enhanced flavor complexity.

- Present the smoothie immediately as a nutritious indulgence, maintaining optimal freshness. Refrigerate any remaining portion and consume within 24 hours to preserve nutritional integrity and prevent bacterial growth.
Notes
- Tailor portion sizes based on your dog’s weight and dietary needs to prevent overfeeding.
- Select unsweetened, xylitol-free peanut butter to ensure dog safety and avoid harmful additives.
- Freeze leftover smoothie in silicone molds for refreshing summer pupsicle treats that provide hydration and nutrition.
- Consider using lactose-free yogurt or skipping dairy for dogs with sensitive stomachs or dairy allergies.
