• 1 cup mashed sweet potato (cooked and cooled)
• 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh spinach
• 1 1/2 cups oat flour (or blended oats)
• 1 egg
• 2–3 tablespoons water (as needed for dough consistency)

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, chopped spinach, and egg. Mix well.
3. Gradually add oat flour, stirring until a soft dough forms. Add water if the mixture feels too dry.
4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
5. Cut into bone shapes or small bite-sized pieces.
6. Place treats on the baking tray and bake for 25–30 minutes until firm.
7. Let cool completely before serving.

Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer freshness, keep them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months—just thaw before serving.

• Small dogs: 1–2 small treats per day
• Medium dogs: 2–3 treats per day
• Large dogs: 3–5 treats per day
