Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
Binding and Moisture Ingredients:
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup water (or low-sodium chicken broth)
Leavening Ingredient:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350F (175C) and prepare a mini donut pan with a light coating of non-stick spray.
- Whisk together oat flour and baking powder in a spacious mixing vessel until thoroughly blended.
- Incorporate pumpkin puree, creamy peanut butter, a fresh egg, and water into the dry ingredients, stirring until the mixture achieves a uniform, smooth consistency.
- Carefully distribute the batter into donut pan cavities, ensuring each is approximately two-thirds full to allow proper rising.
- Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, watching for a set texture and delicate golden hue.
- Extract the donuts from the oven and gently release them from the pan, positioning them on a wire cooling rack to reach room temperature.
- For an indulgent finishing touch, delicately drizzle a thin stream of smooth peanut butter across the completely cooled donuts, creating an enticing canine delicacy.
Notes
- Always use dog-safe peanut butter without xylitol, which is toxic to canines.
- Consider grinding whole oats into flour at home for fresher, more nutritious results.
- Swap ingredients for dogs with specific dietary needs like grain-free or protein sensitivities.
- Test donuts’ firmness by gently pressing the surface to ensure complete baking without over-drying.
