Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour
  • 1/2 cup mashed sweet potato cooked and unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 large egg

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, egg, and chopped parsley and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the oat flour to the bowl and stir until a soft dough forms that is slightly tacky but not wet.
  4. Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness.
  5. Use small star-shaped cookie cutters to cut out treats and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each piece.
  6. Gather and reroll the dough scraps as needed, cutting more stars until all the dough is used.
  7. Bake for 13–15 minutes, until the edges look dry and just begin to turn golden.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the treats cool completely on a wire rack before serving to your dog.

Notes

- Use plain cooked sweet potato with no salt, butter, sugar, or spices added.
- Make sure your parsley is fresh, not dried, for the best texture and color.
- If the dough is too sticky, add 1–2 tablespoons more oat flour; if it is too dry, add 1 teaspoon water at a time.
- Store cooled treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.
