💚 Ingredients

🐾 1/2 a medium sweet potato

🐾 1 Egg

🐾 1 cup Flour

🐾 1 Tbsp Peanut butter

🐾 1 Tbsp Oil

💚 Icing

🐾 1 Tbsp Peanut butter

🐾 A dash of water

💚 Method:

🐾 Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.

🐾 Grease your cake tin or line with baking paper.

🐾 Peel and cut the sweet potato into smaller chunks. Add the sweet potato and egg to the blender and blend until smooth.

🐾 In a medium mixing bowl add the flour, peanut butter, oil and sweet potato mix. Stir the mixture until combined.

🐾 Pour your mixture into the cake tin and bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

🐾 Then remove the cake from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.

*It’s important to note with this recipe that it won't rise and will come out quite moist. If you would like a fluffier cake you may wish to add 2 teaspoons of baking soda to your mixture.*

🐾 Once your cake has cooled completely you may wish to get creative and cut out your cake in the shape of a dog bone just like we did.

💚 Yummy Icing:

🐾 Add the peanut butter and a dash of water to a small mixing bowl. Whip the mixture until the peanut butter is smooth and fluffy. Now, spread the mixture onto your cake and voila!
