Oatmeal Pastry

I’ve used this simple recipe most recently for my prune flan and also mock apricot flan but it would be as suitable for a savoury dish..

Oatmeal Pastry

  1. Sift 6 oz of self-raising flour (or plain flour with a teaspoon of baking powder) with a pinch of salt.
  2. Rub in 2-3 oz of cooking fat and then add in 2 oz of rolled oats.
  3. Mix with water and use as an ordinary shortcrust pastry
  4. Bake in a moderately hot oven
