Scottish Oat Cakes

INGREDIENTS & QUANTITY
¼
CUP WHOLE WHEAT PASTRY FLOUR
1  
CUP BRAZIL NUTS (or walnuts)
1 
CUP QUICK OATS
1
TEASPOON SALT
¼
CUP HONEY, WARMED LITTLE

1.     Place flour and nuts in a food processor and whiz for 1 minute or until nuts are as fine as the flour but not getting buttery or sticking to the sides. Pour into a mixing bowl and add oats and salt. Stir in warmed honey until a ball of dough forms, adding a little water if needed. Mixture should stick together, but not be so wet that it sticks to your hands.

2.     Divide into about 12 walnut-sized balls and place on two non-stick cookie sheets. Poll thin with a rolling-pin.

If the pan sides are deep, turn it upside down and make your cakes on the bottom in order to roll the cakes flat with a rolling pin. Cover them with plastic wrap to keep the roller from sticking.

3.     Bake 10-12 minutes at 350˚F. Watch carefully – they burn easily!

4.     Serve with thickened fruit topping such as blueberry, cherry, or peach. Add nut or soy milk if desired.
