Oat Cake Crackers Food

OAT CAKE CRACKERS

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients.
• Work oil into flour mixture.
• Mix in water and immediately divide in half; shape into a rectangle and put on 2 sheets of waxed paper with quick oats scattered on it.
• Cover with another sheet of waxed paper and roll out 1/4" thick. You need to work quickly with the dough once you add the water, or you'll end up with a brick.
• Remove top paper, cut with pizza cutter,
• Put on 2 cookie sheets.
• Bake 400° for 25 minutes, shifting sheets top to bottom and front to back half way through baking. Bake till lightly brown. Cool on racks.

ENGLISH OAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
• Place the oats, flour, brown sugar, and kosher salt in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse for 45 to 60 seconds, until the oats are coarsely ground. Add the butter and pulse 15 to 20 times, until the butter is the size of peas.
• Dissolve the baking soda in the lukewarm water and drizzle it over the crumbs in the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is evenly moistened and can be pressed into balls that will hold together.
• With a medium (1 3/4-inch) ice cream scoop or two spoons, scoop the dough into your hands and roll them into round balls. Evenly space 12 balls on the prepared sheet pans. Flour the bottom of a flat-bottomed 3-inch-diameter drinking glass and use it to flatten each cracker to 1/8 inch thick and about 3 inches in diameter. The crackers will not be perfectly round. If there is a lot of flour on the crackers, turn them over with a metal spatula. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown on the edges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

HEALTHY SEED AND OAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Combine the oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds, poppy seeds and 2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl and stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Add the olive oil, maple syrup and hot water and stir to incorporate. Allow the mixture to rest for 15 minutes.
• Stir the mixture to ensure any residual liquid on the bottom is evenly dispersed and then pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Place a second piece of parchment on top and then use the palms of your hands to press and spread the mixture into an even layer (1/8 to 1/4 inch thick), making sure to spread all the way to edges of the pan (gently running a small offset spatula over the parchment also helps to spread the mixture evenly). Remove the top piece of parchment and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Bake until the edges are slightly golden brown and beginning to pull away from the sides of the baking sheet, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and cut into 24 pieces (each 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches) using a pizza cutter or sharp knife (see Cook's Note). Return the crackers to the oven and continue to bake until light golden brown and crisp, about 45 minutes. Allow the crackers to cool completely before serving. Store the crackers for up to 1 week in an airtight container.

PEPPERED ROSEMARY OAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the oats into a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add flour, salt, pepper, rosemary, baking powder, and butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and pulse until a dough forms about 15 seconds. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thick (about a 13-inch round) and cut out about 60 square oatcakes. Arrange oatcakes on baking sheets 1-inch apart and bake in middle of oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly brown on the bottom. Transfer oatcakes to a rack and cool completely.

STEEL-CUT OATCAKES

Steps:

• Butter (or use non-stick cooking spray) a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
• Bring 3 1/2 cups water to boil in heavy medium saucepan.
• Add oats and salt.
• Bring to boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until oatmeal is tender but still firm to bite. Stir often and add more water by 1/4 cup fill if too thick. Cook about 20 - 30 minutes.
• Add cream, maple syrup, sugar and vanilla; stir until mixture thickens, about 3 minutes.
• Spread oatmeal in prepared pan.
• Cover with plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 4 hours and up to 24. (Keep chilled until ready to griddle).
• Cut chilled oatmeal into squares or triangles.
• Heat griddle or heavy nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
• Brush griddle with butter.
• Cook oatcakes until golden brown and heated through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Divide oatcakes among plates and top with your choice of toppings (maple syrup, berries or yogurt).

SCOTTISH OATCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 heavy large baking sheets. Place oats in large bowl. Sift flour, sugar, baking soda and salt into same bowl. Using fingertips, rub in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk; stir until dough forms. Transfer dough to floured surface. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out rounds. Arrange on prepared sheets, spacing apart. Gather scraps, reroll and cut out additional rounds.
• Bake oatcakes until edges are pale golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to racks and cool 5 minutes. Transfer cakes to racks; cool completely. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)

SCOTTISH OAT CAKES

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 190C.
• Mix together the oats, flour, salt, sugar and bicarbonate of soda.
• Add the butter and rub together until everything is mixed and has the consistency of large bread crumbs.
• Add the water (from a recently boiled kettle) bit by bit and combine until you have a somewhat thick dough. The amount of water varies; depending on the oats.
• Sprinkle some extra flour and oats on a work surface and roll out the dough to approx. 1/2cm thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes (the final number of oatcakes depends - of course - on the size of cutter you use.
• In a wonderfully Scottish twist/coincidence I found that using an upturned whisky glass makes the perfect size :-)
• Place the oat cakes on a baking tray and bake for appprox. 20-30mins. or until slightly golden brown.

OAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Grease a baking sheet well and set aside. (Note: To make sure that the crackers come off the pan easily, you can also use a few drops of lecithin along with the oil you use for greasing the pan.).
• Place all dry ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until they are consistency of cornmeal. Stop to stir ingredients if they stick.
• Stir in milk.
• Use a frosting knife or rubber spatula to spread batter thinly and evenly on the well-greased baking sheet.
• Place in preheated 325 degree oven and bake slowly until delicately golden, about 15-20 minutes After about 10 mins, use a sharp knife to score the dough in squares, rectangles or desired shape. Watch them carefully, if the crackers on the outside brown faster, remove them and continue to bake the rest.
• Crackers are the crispest while they are baking, so loosen them from baking sheet as soon as they come out of the oven to keep them from crumbling.

OATCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a heavy baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix oats, whole wheat flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until mixture is chunky. Pour in enough water to form a thick dough.
• Spread a thin layer of oats and whole wheat flour on a flat work surface. Turn out dough and pat to an even thickness. Cut into circles using the rim of a drinking glass. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.

OATCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. and butter 2 large baking sheets.
• In a food processor pulse oats until finely chopped. Cut butter into bits. Add butter to oats with all remaining ingredients except milk and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and pulse until mixture just forms a dough.
• On a lightly floured surface halve dough and wrap 1 half in plastic wrap. Roll out remaining dough 1/8 inch thick (about a 14-inch round) and with a 3-inch fluted round cutter cut out about 18 oatcakes.
• On baking sheets arrange oatcakes about 3/4 inch apart and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until pale golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer oatcakes to a rack to cool completely. Make more oatcakes with remaining dough in same manner. Oatcakes may be made 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.

OATCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread 1/2 cup rolled oats on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until light golden and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool then transfer to a food processor; process until finely ground. Add flour, sugar, coarse salt, and pepper; pulse until combined. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add 3 tablespoons cold water and pulse until dough just comes together, adding up to an additional tablespoon as needed.
• Turn dough out onto plastic wrap, shape into a rectangle and wrap in plastic. Chill for 45 minutes. Transfer chilled dough to a sheet of parchment paper. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup oats and roll into a 10-by-12-inch rectangle. Using a fluted pastry wheel, cut into thirty-two 2 1/2-by-1 1/2-inch rectangles. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. If dough becomes soft, chill for 15 minutes.
• Arrange bars an-inch apart on two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until golden, 28 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
