I have to mention one thing even though I'm pretty sure most of you know it... but for the one tenth that don't: NEVER EVER USE PEANUT BUTTER WITH XYLITOL!!!! Xylitol is extremely poisonous to dogs. Xylitol is poisonous to dogs. Even small amounts of xylitol in dogs can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), seizures, liver failure, and even death.
I hope your dog's love this recipe. The Graham flour makes the treats a little darker.
If you do make this, let me know!! BONE APPETITE!!! And give our Homemade Peanut Butter Paw Print or Woofies Bacon and Peanut Butter Dog Treats a try.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can my dog have Graham?
That's a yes! Dogs can eat graham crackers, but we should limit them on how many they eat. Since it's carbohydrate-heavy, it can cause obesity in dogs. It's always best for your dogs to eat healthy.
Can my dog have Cinnamon?
According to the ASPCA, cinnamon is safe for dogs, cats, and horses.
Can my dog have Peanut Butter?
Basically, any peanut butter that doesn't contain xylitol is fine for a dog. In moderation, it can be a significant source of protein and fat for your dog. However, some peanut butter is better than others.
Can my dog have a Banana?
Can dogs eat bananas? They packed bananas with potassium, vitamin B6, and vitamin C. In fact, some veterinarians recommend bananas as a healthier alternative to fatty, salty snacks.
However, only feed your dog bananas in moderation, especially since they contain a lot of sugar. BANANA PEELS ARE NOT FOR DOGS!

Too much sugar is the same thing for dogs as it is for people. It's hard on her teeth and can cause obesity. Diabetes can happen because of it. The amount used in this recipe divided over 45 snacks is literally nothing. Of course... it's your choice!
