In honor of my German Shepherd Hunter's 4th Birthday, I decided to come up with a savory grain free pupcake recipe for dogs that love cheese as much as my dog does. This recipe is healthy, wholesome and full of delicious cheesy flavor. This recipe uses natural ingredients and no preservatives. It is the perfect pupcake for any dog-related birthday or celebration!

This pupcake recipe is grain free, using a mix of coconut flour and arrowroot flour! You will also need applesauce, cottage cheese, cream cheese, yogurt, cheddar cheese and a touch of honey!
PUPCAKES
  • 1/2 cup of coconut flour 
  • 1/2 cup of arrowroot flour
  • 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups of applesauce
  • 1 cup of cottage cheese
  • 2 tablespoons of raw honey
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda


FROSTING 
  • 8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature 
  • 1 tablespoons of honey 
  • 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt 
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut flour
DIRECTIONS 
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit .
  • Line a muffin pan with paper muffin cups.
  • In a large bowl mix the applesauce, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, and honey. Mix in the coconut flour, arrowroot flour and baking soda. Mix well.
  • Use two spoons to drop dollops of dough into the muffin cups and fill the cups 3/4 of the way.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Let your dogs lick the spoons clean. (Very important step!)
  • In a small bowl cream together the cream cheese, yogurt, honey and coconut flour.
  • Place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Let the pupcakes cool then ice the pupcakes and drizzle honey OR shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  • Serve, and enjoy the delight on their faces as they chow down!
