The Recipe Kitchen

Just a cat mom over here, making frozen pumpkin treats for my girl! Kami hopped on my shoulders, meowing in my ear the entire time (and yes, she got some at the end).

These are super easy to make for your pets, yourself, or even your kids!

Pet version: Grab canned 100% organic pumpkin, scoop into small portions on parchment paper, freeze, then transfer to a container—voilà, easy pumpkin treats! You can also bake them for a dried, chewy texture.

Human version: Add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or hazelnut for a pumpkin pie vibe.

Simple, healthy, and Kami-approved!

PRO TIP: If you want to get extra fancy with it, you can create pumpkin treats in any shape you want! Just put pumpkin into any cute silicone (freezer/baking safe) mold of your choosing. Usually I look up “silicone candy molds”. Use a flat edge like an off set spatula or a bench scraper to scrape off the excess on top, then put on a tray and smack it down on the countertop a few times if you want to get out the air bubbles (for the impression to come out very clearly) and then freeze or bake! 

Some silicone molds will be MUCH easier to get a good impression of than others. If you need help, happy to post a thread about how to distinguish which molds are likely going to work (for pumpkin) before you purchase any!
