I made this chicken and blueberry cake for my dog Milo’s birthday last month. The blueberries burst into the chicken, and he ate the first piece without hesitation.
This cake is simple to prepare and is a great homemade dog food recipe option that packs in flavor and health benefits. Your pup will be thrilled with this delightful dessert, and you can feel good about giving them something nutritious.

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