Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small, dog-safe baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, plain pumpkin purée, lightly beaten egg, and melted coconut oil. Whisk until well blended.
    1 cup Unsweetened Applesauce, 1/4 cup Plain Pumpkin Purée, 1 Egg, 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and baking powder.
    1 cup Whole Wheat Flour, 1/2 cup Rolled Oats, 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing. The batter should be thick.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Once the cake is completely cool, whip the plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. This will serve as the "cream cheese frosting."

  8. Spread a thin layer of the Greek yogurt frosting over the cooled cake. Cut into dog-friendly portions and serve.
