Ingredients
- Cake
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter (avoid peanut butter with xylitol)
- 1/2 cup applesauce (plain, unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (use pure pumpkin, not canned pumpkin pie mix)
- 1 egg
- Frosting
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup natural, xylitol-free peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flower and baking soda.
- In another bowl, mix together peanut butter (1/4 cup), applesauce, pumpkin puree and egg.
- Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients, and stir until combined.
- Using a spatula, gently fold the shredded carrots into the cake batter.
- Lightly grease the inside of your cookie cutters. Place cookie cutters onto a baking sheet, and pour batter into them. Let the mixture settle to ensure a nice, even cake shape.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- To make your icing, combine the plain yogurt with the rest of your peanut butter (1 cup) in a bowl. Mix ingredients together until fully blended. Place icing in the refrigerator until your cake is finished baking.
- Remove cakes from the oven. Use a toothpick to test the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it’s ready. Allow the cakes to cool. Once cool, spread a thin layer of frosting onto the cake. Decorate with dog treats, too, if you’d like!
