Baked peanut butter pumpkin dog donuts on a wooden table with a curious dog in the background.

These pup donuts feature a delicious blend of peanut butter and pumpkin, providing a tasty and nutritious snack for your dog. The recipe yields about 12 donuts and takes approximately 30 minutes to prepare and bake.

Ingredients

1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)
1/2 cup peanut butter (unsweetened and unsalted)
1/4 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
2 large eggs
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1/4 cup water (as needed)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, applesauce, and eggs. Mix well until smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until fully combined. If the batter is too thick, add water a tablespoon at a time until you reach desired consistency.
Fill the Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the greased donut pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once cooled, serve them to your dog as a special treat.
