Cake:
- 1 cup rolled oats (blended into oat flour) 🥣
- 1 ripe banana, mashed 🍌
- 1 egg 🥚
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce 🍏
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries 🫐
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter (xylitol-free) 🥜
Frosting:
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt 🍶
- 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter (xylitol-free) 🥜
- Preheat the Oven 🔥: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 6-7 inch cake pan with parchment paper for easy removal. If you don’t have a cake pan, you can use a muffin tin for cute individual-sized portions. 🧁
- Prepare the Oat Flour 🌾: Take your rolled oats and blend them in a food processor or blender until they form a fine oat flour. This step ensures a smooth texture for the cake, making it easy to digest for your pup. 🐶
- Mix Wet Ingredients 🥄: In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork. Add the egg, applesauce, and peanut butter, and mix until all the ingredients are well combined. This mix gives the cake a moist, flavorful base that your dog will adore! 💙
- Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients 🥣: Add the oat flour into the wet ingredients and stir until the batter is smooth. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout. The blueberries add antioxidants, which are great for your dog’s health! 🫐
- Bake the Cake 🍰: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center—if it comes out clean, it’s ready! 🕒
- Cool the Cake ❄️: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the frosting from melting when you apply it later! ⏳
- Prepare the Frosting 🍦: While the cake is cooling, mix together the Greek yogurt and peanut butter until smooth. Place the frosting in the fridge to chill until the cake is ready. This frosting is both creamy and nutritious—your dog will love it! 🐾
- Assemble the Cake 🎂: Once the cake has cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top. You can also decorate it with extra blueberries or other dog-safe treats for a fun, festive touch. 🎉
