  • Oatcakes are always nice, but to me, they're sometimes just a little too hard and dry. It's nice to have your mouth not dried out instantly and to enjoy the flavour without suffering the jaggy edges of a rock-hard oatcake. Make them at home yourself with simple cupboard ingredients and you can serve them as soft as you want.
    Ingredients:
    300g of rolled oats (might be called porridge oats, they need to be flat to cook in time)
    25g of fat (oil, butter, beef dripping)
    2 pinches of baking soda (i may have said bicarbonate and used bicarbonate in the video...)
    Keep a cup of warm water handy and add a few tablespoons at a time to help bring it together
    1/2 tsp of salt
    The oven goes to 150C/300F
    Blend the oats a little bit in a food processor to a size you like the look of
    Reserve a cup of the blended oats
    Mix in your chosen fat and stir to combine
    Add the water a little bit at a time to hydrate everything and bring it together, otherwise you'll have no hope of rolling it out
    If necessary, leave to rest for a few minutes to allow things to soak
    Sprinkle your surface with the oats to roll it out
    Keep adding the reserved oats as and when needed to stop everything from sticking
    Roll it out to your desired thickness
    Cut into shapes
    Place on a baking tray which has also been sprinkled to stop things from sticking
    Bake for 30 mins, check if they need longer.
    (remember, you're trying to use your intuition here. every bake will be different. observe, learn and use your judgement. yes you do have judgement, wheesht you.)
