Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed sweet potato (cooked and mashed)
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter (ensure it contains no xylitol)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure an even baking environment for the dog cake.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the mashed sweet potato, rolled oats, eggs, and natural peanut butter until you achieve a consistent batter.
- Prepare Pan: Lightly grease a small cake pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Pour Batter: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan, spreading evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake is firm and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely to room temperature before serving it to your dog to avoid burns.
Notes
- Always use natural peanut butter with no added sugars or xylitol, as xylitol is toxic to dogs.
- Consult your veterinarian before introducing new treats, especially if your dog has food sensitivities.
- Store leftover cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Serve in moderation as a treat, not replacing your dog’s regular balanced diet.
