Main Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (ensure it’s xylitol-free)
- 1/4 cup honey (optional)
- 1/2 cup blueberries or other dog-friendly fruits
Optional Decoration
- Dog treats for decoration
- Prepare the Pan: Grease a round cake pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease removal of the cake.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, mashed banana, peanut butter, and honey (if using). Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, ensuring even consistency.
- Add the Fruit: Gently fold in the blueberries or any other dog-safe fruits you choose. This step distributes the fruit evenly without breaking them down too much.
- Pour and Smooth: Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan. Use a spatula to level and smooth the surface for an attractive finish.
- Chill: Place the cake in the freezer and chill for approximately 4 hours or until the cake is firm and solid to the touch.
- Serve: Once set, remove the cake from the pan and allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Slice into appropriate portions for your dog, and optionally decorate with dog treats. Serve in moderation as a special treat.
Notes
- Always use peanut butter that is free of xylitol, which is toxic to dogs.
- Serve this treat in moderation to avoid digestive upset due to high-fat ingredients like peanut butter.
- Ensure all fruits added are safe for dogs; avoid grapes, raisins, and other harmful fruits.
- This cake should be stored in the freezer and only thawed portions served fresh.
- Consult your vet if unsure about introducing new treats to your dog’s diet.
