Scottish Oat Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, white sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined. Beat in flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and rolled oats until thoroughly mixed. Stir in the butterscotch chips and coconut. Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto baking sheets.
• Bake the cookies in the preheated oven just until the bottoms are light brown, 7 to 8 minutes. If you prefer crunchier cookies, bake 9 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
• Sift the flour into a bowl. Mix in the baking powder, porridge oats and sugar.
• Melt the butter, syrup and milk in a small saucepan or in the microwave and stir.
• Add to the dry ingredients. Mix until the liquid covers all the oat mixture and until well combined.
• Spoon onto a baking tray and shape into rounds, leaving space between each biscuit as they will spread whilst cooking.
• Bake for 10-15 mins, or until golden brown. Leave to cool for 5 mins before removing from tray.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Dissolve the baking soda in the water.
• Combine the oats, flour and brown sugar. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the baking soda mixture and form dough into a ball. Either roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick and cut with cookie cutters or press dough into the bottom of one 9x13 inch baking pan.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes.

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.)

Steps:

• Combine the oats, flour, baking soda and salt and mix well.
• Add the butter and mix well (a food processor is ideal, but a pastry blender will work).
• Add enough buttermilk to make a stiff dough-- it may take up to 1 1/3 cups-- and mix until moistened.
• Roll the dough 1/4 to 1/8-inch thick and cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter, then place on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake at 450 (the directions just say"hot oven") until firm (or until hard and crisp, per the original directions), about 8 to 12 minutes.
