Oatcakes (not Sweet)
Title: Oatcakes (not Sweet)
Categories: Breads, Scottish, Mine
Servings: 1
3 1/2 c Oats; quick
1/2 c Shortening
1 ts -salt
1/2 c -water, approx.
2 tb Flour
Combine the oats, salt and flour. Cut in the shortening and add enough water to dampen and form a ball. (A food processor does the work in a jiffy). Leave to swell for ten minutes. Divide the dough and roll each part to 1/8" thickness; slide onto ungreased cookie sheet, indent in squares with a pastry wheel or knife. Bake in 350F for about 1/2 hour but watch that they don't turn brown. Sweet Oatcake: Add 1 cup sugar to recipe.
Anne's note: That recipe is labelled "Bannock" in the title in cookbook but it far more a non sweet oatcake in the tradition of Walker's oatcakes (it appears as "oatcakes" in the book's index. Source: _More Baking with
Schmecks Appeal_)
