Ingredients
- 1 cup blackberries
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 teaspoon blue spirulina
Steps
- Wash the blackberries and pat dry.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen blackberries, spirulina powder, and Greek yogurt. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a splash of water to help blend it.
- Pour the mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays. Silicone molds are ideal because they make it easy to pop the treats out once frozen.
- Place the molds in the freezer and let the treats freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely solid.
- Once frozen, remove the treats from the molds and let your pup enjoy!
- Store any leftover treats in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a few weeks.
Substitutions
- Replace spirulina with a pinch of kelp powder
- Use raspberries instead of blackberries
