Pumpkin Spice Latte for dogs

Pumpkin: the perfect base for this delicious autumn recipe

Pumpkin is simply part of autumn. It has a mild flavor, a creamy texture and goes wonderfully with mild spices. The orange-colored tuber also contains numerous nutrients that make the recipe not only delicious, but also valuable. This makes it the ideal basis for a seasonal dog drink.

Ingredients for the dog-friendly smoothie

The "Pup-kinspice Latte" is very easy to prepare with just a few ingredients. Everything is purely plant-based, mild and perfect for the fall season.

For two portions you will need:

• For the base:
• 1 Hokkaido pumpkin
• 360 ml water
• Some crushed ice
• 6 tbsp unsweetened soy yogurt
• 3 tbsp unsweetened peanut butter (made from 100% peanuts, without additives)
• For the topping:
• A few Pops of VEGDOG
• 3 tsp unsweetened soy yogurt
• 1 pinch of cinnamon

Note: Unsweetened soy yogurt is well tolerated by many dogs and makes the latte nice and creamy. However, if you have a known soy allergy or intolerance, you should avoid it.

Pumpkin Spice Latte for dogs: It's so easy!

Don't worry, the recipe sounds more complicated than it is. With a blender and a few simple steps, you can make a creamy smoothie in no time that your furry friend is guaranteed to love. Here's how to prepare it step by step:

1. Prepare the pumpkin: First cut the pumpkin in half, remove the seeds and cut it into small pieces. Then boil in hot water until cooked.
2. Mix the base: Place the cooked pumpkin pieces, water, crushed ice, peanut butter and soy yogurt in the blender. Blend on the highest setting until smooth and velvety.
3. Serve: Pour the autumn smoothie into a bowl, top with unsweetened soy yogurt and sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon.
4. Final crunch: Top the "cream" of the trendy drink with vegan dog treats such as our Pops - and your autumnal moment of indulgence is complete.

Tips for feeding: A few spoonfuls are enough for small dogs, larger four-legged friends can enjoy a little more - but the "Pup-kinspice Latte" is still a snack and not a main meal.

Enjoy & activity in a snack

The latte also tastes great lukewarm as a special reward after a long, rainy walk. You can also put it in a Kong and freeze it or spread it on a lick mat - so your dog not only has a tasty snack, but also an extra portion of activity.
