Instructions

Step 1: Preheat

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2: Grind

Grind the rabbit pellets into a powder with a food processor, blender, or coffee grinder.

Step 3: Mash

Mash the ripe bananas in a medium sized mixing bowl or blend them in with the pellets.

Step 4: Dice

Dice the carrot into tiny pieces. You can do this with a knife or by placing them in the blender or food processor. You can also use pureed carrots if you prefer.

Step 4: Combine

Combine the pellets with the banana and carrots. If the pellets are having trouble sticking together, you can add a splash of water or a small amount of honey to help bind them. 

Step 5: Roll

Roll the mixture  into balls and place on a baking sheet or on a greased cast iron skillet. You could also use a rolling pin to roll the mixture out then cut into small squares or fun shapes with a cookie cutter. 

Step 6: Bake

Bake the homemade rabbit treats at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. 

Step 7: Cool

Allow the rabbit treats to cool and then add them to an airtight container (like a mason jar) for storage. 

Step 8: Enjoy

The last step is to simply let your rabbits enjoy their homemade treats! Feed 1-2 of these sweet treats to your rabbits every other day. 

If you choose to feed them to your rabbits every day, you should keep an eye out for diarrhea and pull back on feedings if you notice a change in the texture of their droppings.
