I decided for this <a href=\"https:\/\/scottishscran.com\/easy-scottish-oatcakes-recipe\/\">recipe<\/a> as it showed some pictures although I used just oats and plenty more water than a couple of tablespoons \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>200gr oats<\/li><li>25g butter melted<\/li><li>1tsp salt<\/li><li>100-200ml boiling water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Process<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Preheat oven at 175C<\/li><li>In a bowl, mix the oats and butter.<\/li><li>Then add a couple of tsp of hot water at each time until you can form a ball. Knead inside the ball. It doesnt have to be sticky! so dont put too much water.<\/li><li>In a  work surface, sprinkle a bit of flour and in a rolling pin.  Carefully flat the dough with the pin. I tried to reach 0.5 thickness. The sides will crack but dont worry. <\/li><li>Use a cookie cutter. I used 8.5cm diameter cutter. Quite big cookie but I liked that way.  Likely you will be able to cut one or two cookies at each time. Make a ball again with the leftovers, add water if needed, and repeat the process. Flat with the pin, cut a cookie, recover the leftovers.<\/li><li>I put a big of sunflower oil in the try, then move the cookies. <\/li><li>Bake for 25-30 minutes. Turn them at least once if you can.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And this is the result!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"382\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.thomarite.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Screenshot-from-2021-11-14-19-57-54-oatcakes.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.thomarite.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Screenshot-from-2021-11-14-19-57-54-oatcakes.png 440w, https:\/\/blog.thomarite.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Screenshot-from-2021-11-14-19-57-54-oatcakes-300x260.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 85vw, 440px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be honest, the taste was stronger than the supermarket ones. It tastes (obviously) a lot to oats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I thought 200g of oats would make a lot of oatcakes but just managed 5 big ones and 2 small pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy with the result, and glad to learn something new!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes I buy from the supermarket oatcakes for having snacks at home.
