Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare Pan
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and line a large baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.
> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Using parchment paper prevents the rustic galette crusts from sticking without needing extra oils.
Step 2: Mix the Crust Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour and egg. Gradually incorporate the bone broth and two tablespoons of the sweet potato puree until a pliable dough forms.
> 💡 **Pro Tip:** If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle in an extra tablespoon of oat flour until workable.
Step 3: Prepare the Savory Filling
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the shredded chicken breast, remaining sweet potato puree, and finely grated carrots until fully combined.
> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Chop the shredded chicken into smaller, bite-sized morsels so it stays neatly inside the galette folds.
Step 4: Shape and Assemble Galettes
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, flatten into a 4-inch circle on your parchment-lined sheet, and spoon a tablespoon of the chicken-vegetable filling into the center. Gently fold the outer edges of the dough over the filling to create a rustic, open-faced pouch.
> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Press the folds gently so they hold their shape during baking.
Step 5: Bake to Golden Perfection
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes until the oat crusts are golden brown and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely before serving.
> 💡 **Pro Tip:** Never rush the cooling process; the warm filling retains heat and should be room temperature before your dog enjoys one.
