Apples are the quintessential Fall fruit. There are so many creative ways you can add apples to a dish. I love making applesauce and use it as an ingredient to make dog treats.
On our previous post, we shared that apples are a good source of fiber and vitamin C and considered a healthy snack for dogs. Just be careful with the apple seeds as it contain small amount of cyanide. Do not allow your dog to eat the core. (Consuming large quantities of apple seeds will do harm to your dog’s health.)
Homemade applesauce is delicious and so easy to make.
Can Dogs Eat Applesauce?
Many commercial applesauce contain sugar and preservatives. It is safer and healthier to
Make Your Own Dog Friendly Applesauce.
In moderation, you can give applesauce to your dog as a treat. Use applesauce as one of the main ingredients in making healthy and delicious dog biscuits.
Dog Safe Applesauce : Serves 6 per 1/4 cup
Ingredients:
4 Apples
(use variety of apples, such as Honey Crisp, Gala, Mcintosh, and Red Delicious)
2-4 tbsp of Honey
2/3 cup of Water
Directions:
Peel and slice the apples (Check our post: What’s the Best Way to Peel an Apple?)
Place sliced apples in a crock pot
Add honey and water
Cook on high for 3-4 hrs
The applesauce is going to be chunky. If you prefer a smoother applesauce, use a blender.

This is a great recipe that we’ll have to try for Scooter & Bear this fall- I think they’d really love it! We have an apple corer/peeler too that we usually use for canning-never thought to bring it out for the dogs!
Wow I would have never thought to use the crock pot for this… Wish I had a cool apple peeler like you do!
I think this sounds terrific!! Not just for the dogs…but for us too!! Thanks for sharing!
I agree…wish I had one of those cool apple peelers!!
We all eat apples so this would be a tasty option. If it is a real warm fall day, it would be good straight out of the refrigerator for a cold snack.
Ohhh, that looks so yummy and would be perfect for Fall! Thanks for sharing, Sugar!

We love apple sauce in this house and really enjoy making it in the fall.
I love this! Going apple picking is a ritual for us in the fall, and then I like to make pies and applesauce. I love how easy this recipe is, and I know the dogs will love it!
