How to Make Vegan Apple Pupsicles – Step by Step

  1. Prepare the apples Quarter the apples and remove stems and seeds (seeds contain trace cyanide – always remove!).
  2. Blend Add apples, coconut oil, and cinnamon to your blender. Blend on high until completely smooth (about 45–60 seconds).
  3. Pour into molds Spoon or pour the apple mixture into silicone ice cube trays or mini muffin trays.
  4. Optional pupsicle stick Wait 20–30 minutes until the top starts to firm up, then gently press a dog bone or chew into the centre to create an adorable (and functional) handle.
  5. Freeze Freeze for at least 3–4 hours or overnight for best results.
  6. Serve & watch the tail wags! Pop out of the mold and serve outside or on an easy-to-clean surface – they melt fast on hot days!

Frequently Asked Questions

Are apples safe for dogs? Yes! Apples are one of the healthiest fruits for dogs (just remove seeds and core).

Can I use any type of apple? Absolutely – green apples give a tart flavour most dogs love, while red apples are sweeter.

My dog is allergic to coconut. What can I substitute? Simply leave out the coconut oil – the pupsicles will still freeze perfectly.
