Baby Benny’s Pugkin Bread Recipe
Ann was kind enough to send over her pugkin bread recipe for me to share. So without further ado, here it is!
- ½ c. unbleached all purpose flour
- ½ c. whole wheat flour
- ½ c. buckwheat flour
- ½ c. old-fashioned oatmeal
- 1 T. baking powder
- 1 t. cinnamon
- ¼ t. salt
- ¼ t. nutmeg
- ¼ t. ginger
- 1 can pumpkin
- 2 eggs
- 1 T. flaxseed
- 2 T. wheat germ
- ½ c. milk
- 2 T. plain yogurt
- ¾ c. unsweetened applesauce
Blend ingredients and spoon into prepared (greased and floured) pans. I use three small loaf pans…or you can use one large loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean. Cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then remove loafs to a rack and cool completely. Serves three hungry pugs….or one Benny.
Note: This is a very flexible recipe…you can add or subtract here and there to suit the tastes and food sensibilities of your pugs. If they have allergies to milk or eggs, for example, add more applesauce to moisten the recipe. I sometimes add a little more oatmeal (love that fiber!), adding just a touch more yogurt or milk for additional liquids. Oh, and if the pugs will share, this is perfectly suitable for humans, particularly if you are trying to cut down on sugar in your diet. One more note…I make my own applesauce for this recipe, and I make it using unpeeled apples. More fiber and vitamins to boot!
