Servings: 18 pup-cakes
Course: Dog Treat, Dogfood
Cuisine: Pets Cuisine

Ingredients
  

  • ½ pound ground beef or other meat
  • 1 egg
  • 5 tbsp oat flour
  • 1 potato medium
  • ¼ cup hot water
  • 2 tbsp liver treats

Equipment

  • 1 Mini muffin tray

Method
 

  1. Add the ground meat, egg, and 4 tbsp of the oat flour in a bowl. Mix thoroughly until combined.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a muffin tray with paper liners, and press meat into each cup. Bake for 15 minutes.
  3. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Peel and dice the potato before boiling. Cook until soft and tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Drain potatoes, reserving the ¼ cup hot water. in a large bowl, start mashing and whisking the potato with the hot water until light and fluffy. Add 1 tbsp oat flour and whisk again. Continue whisking until very smooth.
  5. If your "frosting" is too thick, add a bit more hot water. If it's too thin, add more oat flour.
  6. Fill a piping bag with the mashed potato and use a star tip, or tip of your choice. Pipe each pup-cake top.
  7. If you don't have piping bags or tips, clip a small corner off a ziploc bag and fill with the mixture, or spread on using a spoon.
  8. Remove pup-cakes from oven and cool on a wire rack. Serve at room temperature or slightly warm.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days, or freeze. Serve at room temperature after removing from freezer. 
  • If you don't have oat flour, you can also use wheat or rice flour.
