Vegan Oatcakes Recipe
These Nova Scotia Vegan Oatcakes are the perfect slightly-sweet snack to pair with a hot cup of coffee or tea! They use simple ingredients and are so easy to make!
Servings 6 oatcakes
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cold vegan butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips plus more as needed
- 1 tsp coconut oil optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, salt and baking powder in a large bowl. Stir to combine.
- Using your hands or a knife, 'cut' cold vegan butter into the dry mixture. Once done, it should be a similar texture to sand.
- Pour hot water over dry mixture. Add vanilla, then mix until well combined.
- Shape dough into hockey puck-sized rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are just slightly golden brown.
- Optional: Let oatcakes cool. Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together, then dip oat cakes in chocolate. Place on a parchment paper lined plate and place in fridge for 30-60 minutes, until chocolate has set. Serve and enjoy!
