Enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of first-time parenthood. Progress on the organic vegetable garden and other ramblings of a gaijin in Japan’s least populous prefecture.

A simple biscuit/cookie make from oats and walnuts.

Walnut Oaties

Walnut Oaties

  • 100 g oats
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 75 g butter
  • 75 g brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 50 g walnuts
  • 1/3 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Place the butter, sugar and honey into a saucepan. Over a low heat, melt the butter and stir to dissolve the sugar.

Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the oats and chopped walnuts and combine.
Pour over the butter and sugar and stir with a wooden spoon. When mixed and cool, continue with you hands. Shape into patties and transfer onto a lined baking tray.

Bake at 170ºC for 15-20 minutes

Can substitute the honey for another inverted sugar such as Golden syrup.
I found the mixture cooled too quick and made it difficult to shape. I broke the lumps up and added a little water.
