Introduction:

As a passionate animal lover, you undoubtedly want to celebrate your furry friend’s special day in style. What better way to do so than by baking a homemade birthday cake just for them? I’m Maureen, and today I’m going to show you how to create a tasty and dog-friendly cake that will make your pup’s birthday unforgettable.

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Cake:

  1. 1 cup of whole wheat flour or oat flour
  2. 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  3. 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce
  4. 1/4 cup of plain Greek yogurt
  5. 1/4 cup of natural peanut butter (make sure it doesn’t contain xylitol, which is harmful to dogs)
  6. 1/4 cup of water

For the Frosting:

  1. 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
  2. 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter

Instructions

For the Cake:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a small round cake pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda.
  3. In another bowl, combine the applesauce, yogurt, peanut butter, and water. Mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until well combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the cake pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.

For the Frosting:

  1. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt and peanut butter until it forms a smooth and creamy frosting.
  2. Once the cake is cool, spread the frosting on top. You can get creative with the decoration by adding dog-safe treats like small bits of carrot, apple, or dog biscuits.

Celebrating Your Dog’s Birthday

Now that you’ve baked and decorated a wonderful doggy cake, it’s time to celebrate. Gather your friends and family (including the furry ones) and sing a birthday song to your dog.
