Homemade Dog Waffles – A Tail-Wagging Breakfast Treat

Ever notice your pup giving you those “kibble again?” eyes in the morning? If so, it’s time to upgrade their breakfast with these easy homemade dog waffles!

These waffles are simple to make, full of dog-friendly ingredients, and guaranteed to earn you some serious tail wags. I first started making them for my dog, Snickers, on special occasions (okay, and sometimes just because). Now, the sound of the waffle maker heating up sends her straight to the kitchen, ready for her favorite breakfast treat.

If you can make regular waffles, you can make these – and once your dog tries them, breakfast will never be the same!

🐾 Ingredients for Dog Waffles

Base Ingredients:

  • 1 ¾ cups oat flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce (or pumpkin puree)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Optional Add-Ins:

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (for fiber and omega-3s)
  • ¼ cup unsalted chicken broth (for a savory twist)
  • 1–2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (for extra creaminess)

🐶 Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat the Waffle Maker
    Heat your waffle iron. If it isn’t non-stick, lightly coat it with non-stick spray or coconut oil.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
    In a large bowl, whisk together applesauce (or pumpkin), egg, melted coconut oil, and chicken broth (if using) until smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients
    Add the oat flour, baking powder, and any optional add-ins. Stir until a thick batter forms. If it’s too thick, add a splash of water or broth.
  4. Cook the Waffles
    Scoop 2–3 tablespoons of batter into the waffle maker (adjust based on your waffle size). Close the lid and cook for 3–5 minutes, until golden and firm.
  5. Cool Completely
    Transfer the waffles to a wire rack and let them cool completely before serving to avoid burning your pup’s mouth.
  6. Serve or Store
    Offer a waffle as a special treat or meal topper. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.

🐕 Why These Waffles Are Great for Dogs

  • Oat Flour – Gentle on the stomach and packed with fiber.
  • Applesauce or Pumpkin – Adds natural sweetness and promotes healthy digestion.
  • Eggs – A great source of protein and essential fatty acids.
  • Coconut Oil – Supports a shiny coat and healthy skin.
  • Optional Chicken Broth – Boosts flavor without added salt.

🐾 Tips & Variations

  • Extra Crunch – Cook a little longer for crispy waffles.
  • Peanut Butter Boost – Drizzle dog-safe peanut butter on top for an extra treat.
  • Health Upgrade – Add ground flaxseed or chia seeds for extra nutrients.

🐶 Feeding Guidelines

  • Offer as a treat or occasional breakfast topper.
  • 1–2 small waffles per day is plenty, depending on your dog’s size.
  • Treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog’s daily calories.
  • Always provide fresh water.

With these homemade dog waffles, breakfast turns into a tail-wagging event! They’re easy to make, freezer-friendly, and sure to make your pup’s mornings the best part of their day.
