Peanut Butter Banana & Flaxseeds Treat
Verified Aug 26, 2026
A simple peanut-based paste treat for dogs, made with just peanuts, banana, and flaxseeds. It provides a concentrated source of plant protein and fats, along with some natural antioxidants from the fruit and seeds. This is best used as a high-calorie occasional reward, enrichment filler, or food topper rather than a main diet.

Strong Choice
This is a straightforward, minimal-ingredient peanut butter-style treat that can work well for most healthy dogs when used sparingly. The short ingredient list is a plus, and the added banana and flaxseeds contribute some fiber and naturally occurring micronutrients. Because it’s calorie-dense and relies on plant protein and fat, it’s important to keep portions small, especially for dogs that are prone to weight gain or have a history of pancreatitis.

Strengths
- Very short ingredient list (peanuts, banana, flaxseeds) which is helpful for owners who like to know exactly what’s in the treat.
- Contains plant-based protein and fats that can help boost overall calorie and protein intake when needed.
- Paste texture makes it useful for lick mats, puzzle toys, or hiding medications, which can improve enrichment and cooperation with treatments.
- No added salt, sugar, xylitol, oils, or preservatives, which many owners prefer to avoid in peanut butter treats for dogs.
Considerations
- At about 569 kcal per 100 g, this is a high-calorie treat, so portions should be small to avoid unwanted weight gain.
- Fat from peanuts and flax can be rich for some dogs; those with a history of pancreatitis or needing a low-fat diet should use extreme caution or avoid it.
- Protein and fat are from plant sources rather than meat, so this should not be relied on as a primary protein source for dogs with higher protein needs.
- Dogs with known peanut or seed sensitivities should not be given this product.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Peanut
Peanuts are used in pet foods and treats primarily as a palatability enhancer and concentrated source of plant-based protein, fats (mostly monounsaturated), calories, and small amounts of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E and niacin. They can provide tasty, energy-dense nutrition but should be used sparingly because their high fat content can contribute to pancreatitis in susceptible dogs, they can be contaminated with aflatoxins, may contain added salt or toxic sweeteners like xylitol, and whole nuts or shells can cause choking or gastrointestinal obstruction—peanuts are not appropriate as a staple in cat diets.

02
Banana
Banana is used in pet foods and treats primarily as a palatable source of carbohydrates, natural sweetness, and soluble fiber, often added in small amounts for texture and flavor. It provides potassium, vitamin B6 and modest vitamin C and fiber that can support digestion, but its high sugar and calorie content means it should be limited—especially for overweight or diabetic dogs—and it offers little nutritional necessity for obligate carnivores like cats; banana peels are also hard to digest and generally avoided.

03
Flaxseed
Flaxseed is used in pet foods as a plant-based source of alpha‑linolenic acid (ALA) omega‑3, soluble and insoluble fiber, and modest protein, often added to support skin and coat condition, digestive health, and kibble texture; ground seed or flaxseed oil is more digestible than whole seed. Dogs can partially convert ALA to long‑chain EPA/DHA but cats convert ALA poorly and therefore still need marine sources for essential DHA/EPA; flax is calorie‑dense, prone to oxidation if not stabilized, and contains lignans (phytoestrogens) and trace cyanogenic compounds, so it should be processed and used in moderation.
