Notes

  • This dog cupcake recipe is gluten free when using oat flour. But you can use any flour that you have in your pantry.
  • Peanut butter can be removed completely if your family has a nut allergy.
  • You can also remove the baking powder which will give you a denser cupcake. 
  • Use ingredients that don’t have added sugars or Xylitol.
  • Feel free to add any ingredients to get more health benefits such as carrots or blueberries.
  • As always, please consult your Veterinarian before feeding your dog new ingredients in case they have sensitive stomachs.
