Dog-friendly Apple Peanut Butter Pupcakes Recipe

It’s your dog’s birthday and you’re searching for a cake recipe to fit the prince/princess of all pooches. But remember not just any cake will do for your dog, as it will need to be within a dog’s dietary needs.

Many dogs have allergies to grains, resulting in itchy, dry skin, and added sugar is never a good thing. That is why a grain-free and sugar-free pupcake is your perfect solution!
