We just came across this picture – how cute is he? Looks like he’s having a wonderful birthday!

This got us thinking, no dogs birthday should go unnoticed, and we think that maybe this special ‘pupcake’ recipe might help you give your pet friend a day to remember!

 

 

Pupcake Ingredients:

2 eggs
1 large apple
1 1/2 cups wheat flour
1/4 cup oatmeal
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup water

Frosting Ingredients:

2-3 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
8 oz Neufchatel Cheese (low fat cream cheese)
2 tablespoons honey

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease the muffin tins.

Core, slice and mince the apple.

In a large bowl, mix the flour, oatmeal, baking powder and baking soda all together.

In a separate bowl, blend together the yogurt, water, oil, eggs, honey and honey before stirring in the apple and cheese. Finally, add the two mixtures together and stir until well mixed.

Spoon the final mixture into the muffin tins and bake for about 20 minutes in the center of the oven. Let the cakes rest in the tins for a few minutes before removing them and leaving them to cool further.

To make the frosting, simply combine the Neufchatel cheese, yogurt and honey until the mixture is all smooth! Add a bit of flour to thicken the frosting until it’s a good spreading consistency.

Finally, frost the pupcakes, and voila! You’ve got yourself a great start to a wonderful doggy birthday!
