Following on........

........from my post yesterday, I thought I would try making some Oatcakes from the " Mother to Daughter" book.  I often get hungry between meals and as I am trying to battle the bulge I thought these very low calorie oatcakes might just be the job to stave off the hunger pangs.  They are literally porridge oats,bicarbonate of soda, salt, olive oil and warm water.


 I have just had one out of the oven and they are very nice.  And I am sure they will be lovely with a chunk of mature cheddar and  some pickle, but that is not allowed on the diet. Oh well, just a tiny bit, I won't tell the lady at the slimming club!!!!

mmmmmm.I might be tempted to drizzle them with honey, and enjoy with a glass of whisky, - not very healthy either......

I can't buy oatcakes here and I really crave them - I always bring some back. Your oatcakes look great so I am going to try making some - which I plan to have with some good cheddar.
