So the other day was my sister Maggie’s birthday. She’s ahead of me but some day I’m gonna catch up – I think! WOOF! Anyway, it was a special day. My Lady said she was gonna make us some an extra special doggie treat to celebrate with. She calls them Doggie Pupcakes with Peanut Butter and Banana!
Yep! You read that right!
Doggie Pupcakes are us pup’s version of your human cupcakes.
They look like a real cupcake and even have a Milk-Bone that adds a bit of crunchy goodness to it.
And, of course, the cupcakes have a candle to make a wish on WOOF!
Doggie Pupcakes are made with peanut butter and banana and they even have icin’! WOOF!
That’s some WOOFALICIOUS eatin’ right there!
But, before you get too excited, the icin’ ain’t full of sugar like you humans use.
It is made from some tasty Neufchatel cheese and more creamy peanut butter.
For us pups, all that yummy cheese and peanut butter sure makes our mouth water!
I just know your pups would love a Doggie Pupcake too!
Tell your human that Miss Molly said they are easy to make WOOF!
Now, let me fetch my Lady to tell ya how to make em!
Doggie Pupcakes with Peanut Butter and Banana
Ingredients:
Pupcake:
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 medium bananas *If I made these again I would use over ripe bananas*
2/3 cup honey
2 eggs
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
Frosting:
4 oz Neufchatel cheese, softened (1/3 less fat cream cheese spread)
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 T milk
How to make these woofalicious Doggie Pupcakes:
Preheat oven to 350 F
Line your tin with cupcake liners.
In a bowl, combine peanut butter, oil, bananas, honey and eggs. Mix until smooth.
In another bowl combine flour, baking soda and baking powder.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring as you go until all ingredients are well combined.
Spoon mixture into cupcake liners. Fill about 2/3 full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes at 350 F
While cupcakes are baking you can make your frosting.
Using an electric mixer beat the Neufchatel cheese and peanut butter for about 10 seconds.
Add in your milk and beat until it’s a creamy consistency (not runny).
Once your pupcakes have cooled, spread or pipe the frosting on top.
Add a candle!
If it is an extra special occasion, you can even add in a Milkbone!
Let your pup enjoy! Maggie enjoyed her Doggie Pupcake and a day outside in the sun for her birthday!
Yields: 15-18 pupcakes

Aww! Happy birthday! The treats look wonderful!
How many pupcakes does this make?
It makes 15-18. Sorry I should have included this.
My dogs will love this! They love peanut butter! Can’t wait to make it!
Happy Belated Birthday! What a cute idea!
These are so doggone cute! I never heard of pupcakes before!
Wow, that’s a heck of a nice recipe!
OMG pups cannot get enough of these!!! Even made them for a bake sale and sold out!!
These look amazing will have to make for my pups! thank you for sharing!
I made these with a substitution! I used unsweetened applesauce instead of oil. They were very moist and the puppies loved them! Even a very picky one ate hers! Two other things I will do differently next time, 1. freeze the extra pupcakes and 2. Don’t frost them until right before serving. The frosting dried out really quickly. I had them covered and the frosting dried out over night.
I love the pictures. I’m almost out of the last batch of treats. I’m going to incorporate some of these flavors into the next batch.
What is the shelf life ? Does the frosting harden?
How cute for a pup, a cupcake!!
