Foodie Friday: Peanut Butter & Banana Pupcakes
We are switching it up this Friday. Normally, I post a recipe for humans...and while this recipe is edible, it might not be delicious. A cake without sugar? I don't know how appetizing that sounds.
As unappealing as it might sound to me, it turns out, dogs give this recipe a solid five stars...or bones, I'm not sure.
My youngest pup had a birthday a couple of weeks ago, so I made my tried and true pupcake recipe. It's easy, it's quick, it's a hit! I've added a downloadable pdf to the bottom of this post.
