Easy Dog Cake Recipe
A dog cake recipe you can safely serve to the furry friend in your life. Made with peanut butter and whole grains, it has few ingredients so it's kind to your dog's tummy.
Servings 2 Cakes
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/4 cup Quick Cooking Oats
- 1/4 cup Natural Creamy Peanut Butter Avoid artificial sweeteners. They are not good for your pup.
- 1/4 cup Water, to bring the dough together
- Banana Slices and Oats for Garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. (SEE RECIPE NOTES FOR OPTIONAL DOG CAKE ICING RECIPE)A muffin tin is best for this and a stand mixer of you have it. A hand mixer will also work. Grease the inside of 2 of the muffin cups with a little coconut oil or use muffin liners.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer beat together the oats, flour, and peanut butter for the cake. To get it to be a smooth dough, add 1/4 c. of warm water to bring it together. The cake will basically turn into a biscuit texture.
- Push 1/2 the dough into each of the muffin cups. Bake the cakes for 15-20 minutes or until completely set and dog biscuit texture. Remove from tins and cool on a wire rack. Using an icing tip in a Ziploc or pastry bag pipe the icing on (If using) and/or garnish with more oats and banana slices.

Notes
Optional Icing: You can make an easy and delicious icing your pet will love. Simply mix together 2 tbsp. of plain Greek yogurt (no artificial sweetener) with 1/4 cup of smooth peanut butter. Put this into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip (you can also use the tip of a Ziploc bag) and pipe the icing on. You can also just spread it with a knife ;)
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Sliced bananas brown quickly once cut, so keep them covered as a sealed container or Ziploc bag works best.
Pro-Pup Tip: Un-iced cakes keep longer! So, hold off on the frosting and banana until you're ready to serve.
