These oatcakes are great; very like the ones I had at B&Bs in Scotland. They are a hit at church coffee hour on St. Andrews day and Tartan Day. I put out two pots of Dundee marmalade; one plain and one touched with a wee bit of Scotch Whisky.

I would like to make this recipe, but shouldnt oatmeal be one of the ingredients?

This recipe calls for our Scottish Oatmeal, which is a much finer grind than Steel Cut Oats.

Is 3/4 teaspoon the correct amount for Evaporated Cane Juice? Seems like a very small amount!

We keep the sugar low in this recipe so the cakes can be used for sweet or savory applications. You can increase the sugar to about 1 Tbsp or omit it completely, if you like. These cakes are great garnished with anything: from sweet jam or chocolate to cheese and charcuterie.

Excellent oatcake recipe. I roll it very thin and it makes 18 - 20 oatcakes. You can substitute 1 TB brown sugar or 1 TB Splenda for the cane juice if you don't have it or can't find it.

The flavor of these improves if they are served the day after they are baked. They have a pastry like quality and taste like digestive biscuits which are often served in Scotland with tea.
