Busters Recipes

Oatcakes

1 lb rolled oats any kind
1 1/2 cup boiling water
2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon sugar
4 tablespoon margarine/butter

Put the oats and sugar in a mixing bowl. Pour the
boiling water over the salt and fat and let it melt.
Combine the two, forming a stiff dough. If necessary, add
a little more water or oats until you have a pliable cake,
which at this stage resembles a mud pie. Roll out on a
floured counter to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into 3 inch
rounds or form into one 12 inch round. Arrange on an
ungreased baking sheet. Or, press the dough, thinly and
flatly, onto a griddle, using a spatula to level the top.
Bake on the lower shelf of a slow oven, less than 200
degrees, until dry and hard. Prop door open with wooden
spoon if temperature settings don't go this low.
