Cuisine Scottish
- 3 c rolled oats
- 3 c flour
- 1 c sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 c shortening or lard
- 1/2 c cold water
Preheat oven to 375°.
Cut shortening into the mixture of dry ingredients. Moisten with water - just enough to make the dough adhere.
Roll thin - about 1/4", and cut into squares. (Or use round cookie cutter.)
Bake in 375° oven for 15 minutes, or until just barely browned.
