It is odd that they have the same name as Scottish oatcakes as they are so different but it shows how close these people were in our terms and yet so far away that their ideas of oatcakes were so different.Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-63193221794260072622016-09-22T19:23:24.473+10:002016-09-22T19:23:24.473+10:00Thanks Katie - I think making them GF is not so ha...Thanks Katie - I think making them GF is not so hard if you can eat GF oats. given that oats make up a lot of the bulk and flavour and textureJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-39339779964845167932016-09-22T19:21:43.735+10:002016-09-22T19:21:43.735+10:00Thanks Lisa - we have just finished them with dinn...Thanks Lisa - we have just finished them with dinner - they kept well covered in clingwrap in the fridge and then heated on a non stick frypan (I also had a room temp one for lunch that I heated this morn to freshen it up - best warm but still nice room temp)Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-43307365119113990832016-09-22T19:10:00.636+10:002016-09-22T19:10:00.636+10:00Oh, how funny - my parents spent some time in the ...Oh, how funny - my parents spent some time in the Peak District on their recent UK trip and my Mum told me about these. I will have to send her your recipe as she was keen to try and recreate them. I've never come across them but would love to try and compare to the Scottish oatcakes I know and love (although clearly they're a completely different product).Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887621874869110597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-23626767354409529312016-09-22T16:39:40.016+10:002016-09-22T16:39:40.016+10:00They look fantastic.

I love how they work with both sweet and savoury flavours.
