Happy Birthday Treats
You can make a delicious dog cake using a simple recipe that combines bananas, eggs, oatmeal, and water.
To start, mash the bananas in a large bowl using a fork. Then, fold in the eggs, oatmeal, and water to create the base of the cake.
Using coconut oil, grease a baking tin to ensure the cake comes out easily. Press the mixture into the tin and bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.
For the icing, cook sweet potatoes and blend them into a purée. Mix the purée with cream cheese to create a tasty topping.
Once the cake is baked and cooled, spread the icing evenly over the top. Let it cool in the fridge overnight before serving.
Cut the cake into small slices and serve to your furry friend on their special day.
