Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Dissolve the baking powder in the milk. Beat the butter and sugar until pale and creamy, then mix in the oats, flour, raisins, walnuts and milk to make a stiff dough.

  • step 2

    Tip the dough onto lightly floured surface and roll out until about 1cm thick. Cut into circles with a 5cm pastry cutter, place on an oiled baking sheet, then bake for 15 mins until lightly golden. Leave to cool, then serve with cheese. Can be baked up to 2 days ahead and kept in an airtight container until serving.

Can these be frozen?

These are really nice. Made them with hazelnuts as that's all I had. Taste good on their own or with a small amount of brie. Didn't find them too sweet…just right. Don't think they'll last long as kids and hubby loved them…great for snacking on after school.

The oaties came out just great! I used buttemilk instead of milk (about 6 tbsp) which made the dough really easy to roll out, 50 g of sugar, 100g each raisins & walnuts. The result: an oatcake that is just perfect to eat as an energy bite or to serve it with blue cheese (they do not taste too…
