I made this raspberry yogurt cake for my dog Oliver’s birthday last month. The raspberries made the cake pink, and he ate the first piece before I could take a photo.
Easy Raspberry Yogurt Cake for Dogs
This Raspberry Yogurt Cake features a moist and fluffy texture that your dog will love. The cake takes about 45 minutes from start to finish and is not only a tasty treat but also packed with nutrients. Perfect for any occasion, it serves 8 small dog portions.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
- 1/3 cup honey (optional, omit for dogs with sugar issues)
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries (or dog-safe berries)
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, applesauce, honey, and egg, mixing until smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the whole wheat flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in Berries: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to overmix.
- Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool completely in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack. Once cooled, you can serve it as a special treat for your dog.

I store the cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Oliver gets a small slice as a treat, and the cake usually lasts us two days.
