In a bowl, combine chicken, grated carrot, egg, oat flour, rolled oats, and flaxseed if using.
Add water 1 tablespoon at a time until a firm dough forms.
If too sticky → add a sprinkle of oat flour.

Step 4: Roll Out the Dough
Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to ¼ inch thickness for crunchy biscuits.

Step 5: Cut & Bake
Use cookie cutters or cut small squares/strips.
Place on parchment-lined baking sheet.
