Steps

  1. Add the salt to the flour and oatmeal.
  2. Dissolve the yeast with a little warm liquid and add the sugar. Allow the mixture to become frothy.
  3. Mix the dry ingredients with the yeast liquid to make a batter.
  4. Cover the batter with a clean cloth and leave it in a warm place for an hour.
  5. Cook the oatcakes on a well-greased griddle. Put enough batter onto the griddle to produce an oatcake about 8–9 inches in diameter. The surface will be covered in holes as it cooks.
  6. Flip the oatcake after 2–3 minutes when the upper side appears dry and the underneath is golden brown, and cook for another 2–3 minutes.
