Since we love this boy so much, naturally we decided to celebrate his first birthday with a homemade ‘pupcake’, if you will. I’ve been wanting to experiment with some organic / natural homemade treats so I thought this would be fun and cute for starters (all for the sake of photos + @bladethedogo ‘s instagram of course, ha). We’re just a little obsessed with him!
Ingredients:
1 c. unsalted, all natural peanut butter
3 eggs
2 bananas (mashed)
1 apple (diced)
1/2 c. coconut flour
1/4 c. cottage cheese
3/4 tsp. baking soda
Preheat oven to 350, grease a cake pan (or this could make 12 cupcakes / muffins), in a large bowl combine the peanut butter, cottage cheese, bananas, and eggs. Mash and stir until well mixed and smooth (ish). Add in diced apples, coconut flour, and baking soda. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on the top. Remove and let cool before frosting.
Frosting ingredients:
1/2 c. cream cheese
1/2 c. unsalted, all natural peanut butter
1 tbsp. coconut oil
Cream all ingredients together until smooth and frost once the cake (or cupcakes) have cooled.
All of the emotions of your first birthday and first cake tasting….
It’s his party and he’ll cry if he wants to.
Happy Friday!
