(makes 18 oatcakes)
A wonderful breakfast invention, these can be served with honey, butter, or jam, but they’re just as satisfying plain. They make an excellent hors d’oeuvre or a yummy snack, topped with smoked fish or other meat, or cheese for those who aren’t dairy-sensitive.
INGREDIENTS
½ c shortening
1 c regular GF oats or quick-cooking GF oats
1 c GF flour mix
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
2 to 3 tbsp cold water
DIRECTIONS
1. Cut shortening into oats, flour, baking soda and salt until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add water, 1 tbsp at a time, until mixture forms a stiff dough.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
3. Roll until 1/8 inch thick on lightly floured surface. Cut into 2 ½-inch rounds or squares. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
4. Bake until oatcakes start to brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
