Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 jar (2.5 oz) baby food chicken OR pure chicken broth for dogs
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for added sweetness and energy boost)
Substitutions
- Omit honey if your dog has a sensitivity to it.
- Use non-dairy yogurt or pure chicken broth instead of baby food chicken for dogs with dairy intolerance.
- Substitute water with coconut water for added electrolytes.
Instructions
- Blend the Ingredients Together: Add the chicken, blueberries, honey (if using), and water into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, or pulse less to keep small chunks of chicken for texture.
- Pour into Molds: Place silicone molds or ice cube trays on a baking sheet for stability. Using a spoon or funnel, pour the blended mixture into each mold, filling them up. Clean up any spills.
- Freeze for 3 Hours: Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 3 hours until solid. Once frozen, remove the pup pops from the molds.
- Serve and Enjoy: Offer the pup pops to your dog as a cool treat. For small dogs, serve half a pup pop; for larger dogs, serve a whole one. Always supervise your dog while eating.
Notes
- Store pup pops in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Best enjoyed within a few weeks for optimal freshness.
- Low-fat, grain-free, and hypoallergenic, but check individual ingredient sensitivities.
- Substitute ingredients as needed to accommodate dietary restrictions.
- Serve in appropriate portion sizes based on your dog’s size to prevent choking.
