Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
  • 1/4 cup Natural Peanut Butter (Xylitol-Free) Crucially, ensure it's xylitol-free, as xylitol is toxic to dogs.
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/4 cup Water or Low-Sodium Chicken Broth (Unsalted) Ensure broth is free of onion and garlic.
  • 1/2 cup Cooked, Mashed Sweet Potato

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Paper liners
  • Wire rack
  • Medium Bowl
  • Large Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour and baking soda until well combined.

  3. In a separate large bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, xylitol-free peanut butter, egg, water or broth, and mashed sweet potato. Mix thoroughly until smooth.

  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a pupcake comes out clean. The pupcakes should be lightly golden brown and firm to the touch.
  7. Let the pupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve as a special treat or part of a meal. Adjust portions based on dog size and activity. Consult your vet for personalized advice.
