Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  8. Once baked, remove the treats from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

Notes

Storage & Reheating:
Store the biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, freeze the treats for up to three months. Remember, these biscuits are an occasional treat and should be given in moderation. Always consult your veterinarian if your dog has allergies or dietary restrictions.
Variations:
- Substitute chicken with cooked turkey for a different protein source.
- Add pureed pumpkin instead of sweet potato for a seasonal twist.
- Mix in small blueberries or carrots for added nutrients and flavor.
