Most human foods are not healthy for dogs as they contain ingredients that can be toxic and unhealthy for dogs. However, many dog lovers are often found guilty of sharing human food with their dogs. What if there was something that you could cook for your dog & you? Here is a recipe to bake a desert that you can enjoy with your dog.
Apple Cobbler
Use this recipe to make two delicious mini Apple Cobblers that you and your dog can enjoy! You’re going to need two personal-sized baking dishes. If you would rather use a standard pie dish, multiply the ingredients by four to bake eight servings at once.
Ingredients for Two Servings
1 Red Apple, peeled and sliced
1 Granny Smith Apple, peeled and sliced
2 Scant tablespoons of white sugar
1 Scant tablespoon of brown sugar
2 Tablespoons of flour
1 Pinch of baking powder
1 Pinch of baking soda
3 Heaping tablespoons of rolled oats
3 Tablespoons of butter and some more for greasing
Get to Work!
- First preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Add the slices of Apple, white sugar, brown sugar and flour to a medium bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Grease the baking dishes generously with butter. Make sure the Apple slices are evenly distributed.
- Melt the butter by heating it in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds.
- Add the baking soda, baking powder, oats and butter to the same mixing bowl and stir well to combine.
- Evenly pour the topping over the Apples.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes until the Apples are tender. Bake for 30–40 minutes if you’re baking a full pie.
Avoid Cinnamon
Usually, Cinnamon is added to Apple Cobbler. However, Cinnamon is harmful for dogs, so we decided to leave it out. If you would like Cinnamon with Apple Cobbler, you can sprinkle some over your servings. Make sure that you don’t share any of that with your fido!
