How to Make Oatcakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups rolled oats, ½ cup almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ cup brown sugar.
  3. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted margarine using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of water.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently form it into a rectangle. Cut the rectangle into 16 equal bars, approximately ½ inch thick.
  7. Place the oatcakes onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip each oatcake and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  9. Let the oatcakes cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing.
