How to Make Apple Oatcakes
- Preheat your griddle or large skillet to medium heat.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats with 1 cup boiling water. Stir, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes to soften.
- While the oats are softening, peel and chop 2 medium apples (about 1 1/2 cups).
- Add 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) melted butter to the softened oats. Stir in the chopped apples.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- In a third bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gently fold the apple-oat mixture into the dry ingredients. Then, carefully incorporate the egg and brown sugar mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Lightly grease the preheated griddle. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each oatcake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with chopped walnuts, a drizzle of maple syrup, and a dollop of crème fraîche. Enjoy the coastal charm in every bite!
