Oatcakes

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. If the butter isn't soft / at room temperature, nuke it 10 seconds at a time until it is.
3. Dissolve baking soda in hot water (add a little more water if needed).
4. With your hands, I don't think you can do it with a machine or spoon, combine oatmeal, flour, brown sugar with butter.
5. Add baking soda & water mix, with your hands mix and mold into a ball in the bowl.
6. Press it out onto an ungreased baking sheet. Roll it with a rolling pin or a glass or can to get the thickness even. I make mine ¼" thick, some people like 'em thicker. Or you can cut them in rounds or any shape with a glass, tin can or cookie cutter.
7. If you haven't cut them in shapes already, score to 2-3" squares, rectangles or diamonds. You'll use these lines for clean cuts after baking.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until they are golden brown. They should be crisp and crunchy, not chewy.
9. Separate the along the score lines with a thin knife and place on a rack to cool.
