Peanut butter and banana dog birthday cake

Ingredients

• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup creamy all natural (no sugar added) peanut butter (microwave it for 30-45 seconds so that it is runny)
• 1 large or 2 small bananas, smashed
• 1/4 cup canola oil
• approximately 3/4 cup water
• non stick pan spray

Doggie Cake Icing:

• 1 cup white yogurt chips
• dog kibble

Preparation

• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a standard 8 inch round cake pan with non stick pan spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the oil, egg, peanut butter and smashed banana and mix with a wooden spoon.
• Add in the water as needed to make the mixture the consistency of a typical cake batter.
• Pour the batter into the round pan and bake for about 40 minutes. Remove cake from pan and allow it to completely cool before icing.
• Doggie Cake Icing:
  Microwave the yogurt chips for 2-3 minutes, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Once chips are completely melted, pour it over the cake and spread with a spatula. Use the kibble to write your dog's first initial. Allow to harden (should take about 30 minutes).

Observations

If you want to get fancy, you can use a drop of food coloring and dye a few tablespoons of the icing. Then, use a pastry bag or standard ziploc bag to write your pup's name or anything else!.
