Easy Dog Cake Recipe – Peanut Butter & Banana

Yields: 15-18 cupcakes or two 4-inch round cakes.

Ingredients
โˆ™ 2 cups quick oats
โˆ™ 1/2 cup smooth natural peanut butter
โˆ™ 1/4 cup coconut oil or olive oil
โˆ™ 1  mashed banana (preferably overly ripe)
โˆ™ 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
โˆ™ 1  egg
โˆ™ 2 tsp baking soda
โˆ™ 1 tsp baking powder
โˆ™ 1 Tbsp honey
Frosting:
โˆ™ 2 cups smooth natural peanut butter
โˆ™ 1-2 tbs water

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Line your muffin tins with cupcake liners or oil. If making  cakes, line the cake pans with parchment paper.
3. Mash banana and add peanut butter, oil, applesauce, honey, and egg. Mix until smooth.
4. In another bowl, combine oats, baking soda, and baking powder.
5. Gradually add the combined wet ingredients to the dry, stirring until well combined.
6. Spoon into cupcake cups or pan until 2/3 full.
7. Bake cupcakes for 18 minutes, and cakes for 28 minutes.
8. While cupcakes bake, make frosting: using electric mixer, whip peanut butter until soft, slowly add water until you have a frosting-like consistency.
9. Once cakes cool, spread or pipe on frosting.
10. You can also decorate the top with crushed dried  salmon skins, sliced banana or your pup’s favourite treats.
