Ingredients

Scale

1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
½ cup natural peanut butter (xylitol-free)
2 eggs
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (optional)
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, and eggs until smooth.
Gradually stir in the whole wheat flour and baking powder until well combined.
Optionally, mix in the ground flaxseed, honey, and cinnamon for added flavor and nutrition.
Scoop the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool completely before serving to your dog.

Notes

Ensure the peanut butter you use does not contain xylitol, which is toxic to dogs.
Muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
You can substitute whole wheat flour with oat or almond flour for a gluten-free option.
