I baked this beef egg protein cake for my dog Milo’s birthday last weekend. The eggs scrambled into the beef, and he ate the first piece without hesitation.

I keep the cake covered in the fridge for up to two days since eggs spoil quickly. Milo gets a small slice as a treat, and the cake usually lasts us two days.
