peanut butter and carrot doggie birthday cake

Friday, March 15, 2013


Today was my darling puppy's first birthday! He got lots of presents and, of course, a birthday cake! I found this delicious recipe online for a peanut butter and shredded carrot doggie cake from the Brown Eyed Baker. The three dogs (my two pups and their best buddy) absolutely loved the cake - especially the peanut butter frosting!

Ingredients:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup natural peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
1 cup shredded or chopped carrots
1 egg

Method:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Spray an 8x4 inch loaf pan (best if you plan on cutting the cake into a bone shape!) or a 8 inch round cake pan. Whisk together the flour and baking soda, then add in the rest of the ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined. Pour batter into pan and bake for a little more than 30 minutes, until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow to cool and then flip onto a flat surface. Using a sharp knife, cut into a doggie bone shape and then frost the top with smooth peanut butter. This will make quite a decently sized cake, so it's good to share among pups or even cook in smaller portions (doggie cupcakes!).

It is human-friendly too if you want to join in the festivities, so enjoy!!
