Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 1/2 cup quick oats
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter make sure you choose a xylitol-free peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup apple sauce
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Frosting
  • 1 cup sweet potato boiled
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream
Garnish
  • 1/4 cup sweet potato peeled and sliced SUPER thin

Method
 

Pupcakes
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
  2. Add honey, peanut butter, apple sauce, and egg and stir until well combined.
  3. Preheat oven to 350º and lightly grease a mini muffin tin. Fill the 3/4 full and bake 12-15 minutes. (You can also use a full-sized muffin tin, but Scout is a smaller dog so we made smaller muffins!)
Frosting
  1. Peel sweet potato and chop into small cubes.
  2. In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to boil. Add chopped sweet potato. Boil 20 minutes or until very tender. Drain and allow to cool.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine sweet potato and coconut cream and beat until smooth.
  4. Once the pupcakes are cooled, top with the frosting!
Garnish
  1. Preheat oven to 425º and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel sweet potato and slice VERY thin. Using a mandolin makes this much easier.
  3. Spray lightly with olive oil or coconut spray. Bake 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Stick the chips into the frosting and serve to your four-legged friends!

Notes

Fun fact! These are completely safe for human consumption – obviously. And they actually taste pretty good!
*PS – If you don't feel like creating the sweet potato frosting, these are also great with a swipe of peanut butter on top. Scout approved both versions!
