NOVA SCOTIA OATCAKES



Nova Scotia Oatcakes image

Oatcakes are a traditional teatime item in Nova Scotia. They are equally good with a cup of coffee anytime.

Provided by Molly Watson

Categories     Breakfast     Dessert     Snack

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups rolled oats/traditional oatmeal (not quick-cooking or instant)
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup shortening or butter
1/4 cup very hot or boiling water

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 F. In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Add the shortening or butter and use 2 knives, a large fork, or your fingers to work the fat into the dry ingredients.
  • Pour in the hot water and stir until everything comes together into a thick, sticky dough.
  • You can roll the dough out on a well-floured surface, cut it into shapes, and set them on a large baking sheet. Or keep things simple and simply press the dough into an even 1/4-inch layer on a baking sheet. Score this large "cake" into smaller pieces: Use a knife to cut the dough into squares or rectangles or whatever shapes you like, but don't bother to separate the pieces; the pieces will bake back together but be easy to cut or break along that original cut line.
  • Bake until golden, about 12 minutes. You can take them out now for chewier oatcakes or reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and bake until lightly browned, about 10 more minutes, for crisper oatcakes.
  • When they have finished baking, if you've cut them into shapes, let them cool; if you've scored them, cut them apart while warm so they cool into squares (or rectangles or triangles or whatever you've cut them into).
  • Serve and enjoy.
