Banana Peanut Butter Pupcakes

May 26, 2015 by The Emotional Baker 30 Comments

Spoil your pup with these delicious pupcakes

Pupcakes

I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend! Mine was filled with baking, kitty cats, and walks with Winston.

Pupcakes

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.

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
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin.
  2. 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.
  3. 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 😉

    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.

      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?

    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 🙂

Sourdough Cracker Recipe Inspired by @feastingathome
Perfect. • It’s something we try so hard to ac Perfect.
•
It’s something we try so hard to achieve.
•
But at times it can leave us feeling tired, unworthy, and not “as good” as our peers.
•
Trying to get the perfect photo, something I use to love to do, started to drain me out more than fill me up.
•
So I haven’t been taking as many photos.
•
Getting the perfect photo would lead to my family eating cold pancakes while I tried to get that award winning shot. Or an hour of clean up picking up all the leftover sprinkles I used for my fancy backdrop.
•
So this Easter I kept things easy. I shot a few quick photos of these Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls with my iPhone and left my DSLR and natural light to the side.
•
The Emotional Baker of a year ago would gasp that I’m posting this photo.
•
But here’s the truth: Every day’s perfect, even if it goes unplanned. Every meal, every moment with loved ones, every walk, everything you do each and everyday is perfect. And just as it’s intended to be.
•
Here’s to a day of finding bliss in the imperfect and knowing it truly is perfect just as it is.
•
Happy Easter!
•
Love, Megan - The Emotional Baker 💖🐰😘

Why is it the simplest shaped cookies are always m Why is it the simplest shaped cookies are always my favorite? Maybe it's the same reason the simplest things in life are my favorite too.
•
Every year I look forward to a round cookie, with icing, and crunchy sprinkles. This year my cookies got a bit of an update thanks to @freshaprilflours and @fancysprinkles.

My wish for you this Christmas is that you can savor the simple things, find peace and feel the love that surrounds you every day.

All my love,
