Let Them Eat Cake May 3, 2007


Why not bake your dog a birthday cake? To make it safe as well as nutritious, skip the chocolate and sugar and make a mix of ground or finely chopped turkey, beef, lamb, or chicken (not pork) and broccoli, carrots, peas. Recipes on the Internet are plentiful (search "cake for dogs"). Or try this vegetarian delight from Real Food for Dogs. In a large bowl, blend 3 cups of water, two shredded carrots, one egg, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix in two mashed bananas. In a separate bowl, combine 4 cups of whole-wheat flour, 1 teaspoon each of baking powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Combine the flour and carrot mixtures and blend well. Spray a cupcake pan with nonstick spray. Fill each cup three-quarters full and bake at 350 F for about an hour. Cool before serving. Makes 24 cupcakes, so your pet can invite his friends.



Hope this works! I got this reciepe in my email today! Wierd huh?!

Pumpkin Spice Pupcakes

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup pumpkin puree (canned works fine, just don't use the pumpkin pie mix)
2 cups applesauce (the no-sugar added kind)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons nutmeg
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

Preheat oven to 325*. In a bowl or measuring cup, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. In a large bowl, mix pumpkin, applesauce, honey, eggs, and spices. Slowly add dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons at a time into greased mini-muffin tins. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean.

This is a recipe I adapted from a healthy pumpkin spice cake recipe I had. I thought it tasted awful, the dogs loved it. Because of the spices, this is really more of a special occasion treat than an every day kind of treat. If you want to make it a cake instead of cupcakes or mini cupcakes just increase the baking time and use the toothpick method to check it for doneness.
