Preparation:
Mix the oats, flour, salt and baking powder. Melt the butter in the hot water and add it to the dry ingredients. Knead the dough a little on a floured board. Roll thinly. Cut into "farls" or quarters or stamp into rounds with a cutter. Cook on a greased griddle or bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Eat the same day with butter and honey.
Note: Oat cakes baked in the oven taste better than those from a greased griddle. |
