I made this chicken egg birthday cake for my dog Luna’s birthday last month. The eggs scrambled into the chicken, and she ate the first piece without hesitation.
Easy Chicken Egg Cake Recipe for Dogs
This dog-friendly birthday cake features a moist and flavorful base made from chicken and eggs, ensuring your pet receives a nutritious treat. This recipe takes about 1 hour from start to finish and serves 8 dog-friendly slices.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (dog-safe)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth (optional, for moisture)
- Dog-friendly frosting (optional, e.g., yogurt or peanut butter)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round cake pan.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, eggs, applesauce, and peanut butter. Mix until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the whole wheat flour and baking powder until just combined. If the mixture seems too dry, add chicken broth gradually to achieve a cake-batter-like consistency.
- Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Frost: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, frost the cake with dog-friendly frosting if desired.
- Serve: Cut slices of the cake and serve to your furry friend. Be sure to enjoy this special occasion with your pet!

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