Spoil your pup with these delicious pupcakes
I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend! Mine was filled with baking, kitty cats, and walks with Winston.
For Winston’s birthday, I made pupcakes to celebrate. These are totally human friendly, too 😉 I may or may not have had more than Winston – whoops! (I had mine without frosting.) Next time you want to make a treat for your pup, consider these! Cut them in half or quarters so it’s easier for your dog to eat.
Banana Peanut Butter Pupcakes
Author: Megan - The Emotional Baker
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1.5 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Frosting:
- ½ banana
- ⅓ cup peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin.
- Mash bananas in large bowl. Mix in sugar and peanut butter. Once combined, add flour, salt and baking soda. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While cupcakes are cooling, make frosting. Mash half a banana with a third cup of peanut butter. Add more peanut butter if necessary to make a thicker "frosting." Spread frosting onto cupcakes.

Thanks Mir! Winston has a sensitive stomach, but these didn’t seem to bother him 😉

I made homemade dog treats a few times a couple years ago … and haven’t since! haha I need to up my game! These are so fun!
The Emotional Baker says
Thanks Ashley! I hadn’t made Winston dog treats in forever. It was so fun to make something just for him!

So cool of you to make these for Winston on his special day. Better yet, they’re pup AND people friendly. Love this, Megan!

Thank you, Brooks!
Erin @ Miss Scrambled Egg says
You’re so sweet. My dog loves every kind of human snack from broccoli to melon. He would devour these pupcakes…and I might as well.
The Emotional Baker says
Winston loves basically everything except spinach and pineapple. I always drop these, but he never picks them up. What kind of clean-up assistant is he?
Liz says
Our last pup was on a special diet, so I couldn’t ever bake her up a treat! Cannot wait till Izzy is old enough to have one of these pupcakes 🙂
The Emotional Baker says
Winston’s on a special diet, too, but for some reason my baked treats don’t bother him 😉 PS: Izzy is sooo cute!
