2 c Rolled oats -- (not instant)
2 1/4 c Buttermilk
2 1/2 c Unbleached flour
1 t Salt
1 t Baking soda

Recipe by: From Celtic Hearths The day before serving,
mix the oats with 1-1/4 cups of the buttermilk in a
bowl. Cover and let stand overnight at room
temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly
grease a baking sheet and set aside. Sift together the
flour, salt and baking soda. Gradually beat the flour
mixture into the oat-buttermilk mixture, adding
remaining buttermilk as you work, to form a soft
dough. You may not need to use the full 2-1/4 cups
buttermilk. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and
flatten with hands or floured rolling pin so that it
forms a circle about 1 inch thick and 9 to 10-inches
in diameter. With a sharp knife, cut into quarters or
eighths, as desired, and place on prepared baking
sheet. Bake for 40 minutes, or until browned. Serve
warm. Note: These are high in fiber and low in fat,
provided you don't slather th with butter. Delicious
with jam or marmalade. Yield: 8 servings.
