November was a big month for use! November 14th was Paco (and heavenly winston’s) gotcha/forever day. We also were lucky to add another furry member to our pack on november 8th as well.
Batter is puppy approved.
Paco of course needed his puppy cakes! I took a recipe I had and expanded it to include what I had in the freezer and house! During the late summer and fall i make puppy friendly apple sauce in the crockpot from my neighbors trees! We had left over pumpkin from a can that a sitter opened that we didn’t need that i also froze!
The original recipe was from Jen Wood.
We replaced the cheese and the honey with the pumpkin!
Puppy Cakes – apple sauce – pumpkin and love
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350º F
- Spray mini muffin pan with pam
- In a large bowl, mix the applesauce, pumpkin, oil, and eggs together.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, oats, and baking powder together.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- Add 1/2-3/4 cup flour is needed
- Spoon the mixture into the muffin tins
- Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool, then let your pup enjoy!
I generally keep these in the fridge due to their soft nature and containing eggs
Verdict:
Both pups snarf these down. I give them about 1 a day, 1 to make it last and to keep calories down
If you try them let me know what you included in the ingredients
