8 oz Fine oatmeal
8 oz Wholewheat or plain flour
1 ts Salt
1/2 oz Fresh yeast
1 1/2 pt Warm milk and water; mixed
-half and half
1 ts Sugar
1. Add salt to flour and oatmeal. 2. Dissolve yeast with a little warm
liquid and add sugar. Allow to become frothy. 3. Mix dry ingredients with
yeast and rest of warm liquid to make a batter. 4. Cover with clean cloth
and leave in warm place for 1 hour. 5. Bake on well-greased griddle. Put
enough batter onto griddle to produce an oatcake about 8 or 9 inches in
diameter. The surface will be covered in holes as it cooks. Turn oatcake
after 2-3 minutes when upperside appears dry and underside is golden brown,
and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Eat as soon as possible. Oatcakes freeze well.
