Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 cup cooked shredded chicken (boneless and skinless)
  • 1 cup finely chopped green beans lightly steamed or blanched and cooled
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour plus extra for dusting and adjustments
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth plus extra as needed
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or olive oil
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken and chopped green beans and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, chicken broth, and melted coconut oil or olive oil until smooth.
  4. Stir the chicken and green bean mixture into the wet ingredients until evenly distributed.
  5. Gradually add the oat flour to the bowl, stirring until a soft, workable dough forms.
  6. If using, mix in the parsley and ground flaxseed until fully incorporated.
  7. Check the dough consistency: if it is crumbly, add 1 tablespoon of extra chicken broth at a time; if it is too sticky, sprinkle in additional oat flour until it holds together like cookie dough.
  8. Lightly dust a clean work surface with oat flour and turn the dough out onto it.
  9. Roll the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness with a rolling pin.
  10. Cut out shapes with small cookie cutters or slice into bite-sized squares with a knife.
  11. Arrange the pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each treat.
  12. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the treats are firm and the edges are lightly golden.
  13. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the treats cool on the pan for 5 minutes.
  14. Transfer the treats to a wire rack and cool completely before serving or storing.

Notes

- Use only plain, unseasoned cooked chicken with no onions, garlic, or added salt.
- Never use xylitol or any artificial sweeteners, as they are toxic to dogs.
- Store cooled treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, in the fridge for up to 10 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
- For smaller dogs, cut the dough into very small pieces so the treats are easy to chew and portion.
