Things That Go Yum In The Night… Halloween Dog Treat Recipe
Autumn… all the leaves are brown and let’s face it, whilst out walking you have to have your wits about you, in order to avoid 💩.
With the leaves falling, darker nights ahead of us, this is a very real threat to the shoes of the humble dog walker. Many arm themselves with a torch and keep their fingers crossed. Smiles aside, I never really understand why people can’t scoop up their own dogs poop. I’d honestly do anything for my dog and picking her poo up with a plastic bag, has never been an issue. Anyway…
The autumn months bring a beautiful set of colours, as nature prepares for winter and the changes of the season. Halloween seems to have become more and more popular and much effort is often made on the festivities of this holiday. But how to satisfy your dog when they’re not impressed by the whole dressing up malarkey, or even those who enjoy playing dress up?
with Mungo in mind, my thoughts go straight to food. So, trick or treat? It’s a no brainer.
This easy dog treat recipe, makes one individual pupcake… because let’s face it, Halloween is but one ghoulish night of the year.
Frighteningly Spookyalicious Pupcakes
Halloween Pupcake Ingredients
1/2 mashed banana
50g oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp peanut butter-make sure it’s 100% natural, absolutely no Xylitol and no sugar added.
How to Make your Halloween Pupcake
Preheat your oven 180C/350F
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, it’s too easy.
Place the mix into a paper cupcake/fairy cake case or grease a muffin tin.
Bake for 20 minutes and allow to cool.
These cakes won’t rise as you would expect a ‘normal’ cupcake, as the baking powder can only do so much!
Handy Tip: Frost if you wish with cooked, cooled mashed carrot or sweet potato or peanut butter.
Remember dogs can suffer from allergies, so please check the ingredients are safe for your dog and maybe not allow your dog to swallow whole in one sitting. Sorry Mungo.
