3-Ingredient Dog Cake

This 3-Ingredient Dog Cake Recipe is made with sweet potatoes, brown rice, and peanut butter! It’s no-bake, flour-free and a great treat for your furry friend on their birthday.

Ingredients Needed for a 3-Ingredient Dog Cake

• 1 small sweet potato
• 2 TBS raw unsalted peanut butter, divided
• 1 TBS unsweetened plain greek yogurt, optional for frosting
• 1/3 cup cooked brown rice
• 1/4 cup cooked and unseasoned shredded chicken (optional)

How do you make a cake for a dog with three ingredients?

1. Poke some holes in the sweet potato and microwave it for 6-8 total minutes, stopping at the halfway point to flip.
2. Remove the sweet potato from the microwave and let it cool. Use a fork or spoon to scrape the orange flesh out.  It should yield around 1/2 cup.
3. Mix one TBS peanut butter into the sweet potato mash. Next, add in cooked brown rice. Add in cooked chicken, if using. Stir to combine and place on a plate, patting into a cake shape. The mixture will be rather firm. Let cool completely in the fridge for about 15 minutes. It will firm up more.
4. Remove from fridge and “frost” with remaining 1 TBS peanut butter OR 1 TBS unsweetened plain greek yogurt.

Instructions

1. To cook the sweet potato, wash it and poke a few holes with a fork. Place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high for 6-8 total minutes, stopping at the halfway point to flip. Alternative, roast your sweet potato in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes.
2. Remove the sweet potato from the microwave once done and carefully cut open with a knife to let the steam escape (to cool it down). Use a fork or spoon to scrape the orange flesh from inside the potato. It should yield around one half cup.
3. Mix one TBS peanut butter into the sweet potato mash. Next add in cooked brown rice. Add in cooked chicken if using. Stir to combine and place on a plate, patting into a cake shape. The mixture will be rather firm. Let cool completely in the fridge for about 15 minutes. It will firm up more there.
4. Remove from fridge and “frost” with remaining 1 TBS peanut butter OR 1 TBS unsweetened plain greek yogurt.
