NOVA SCOTIA OATCAKES
Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375 F. In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Add the shortening or butter and use 2 knives, a large fork, or your fingers to work the fat into the dry ingredients.
- Pour in the hot water and stir until everything comes together into a thick, sticky dough.
- You can roll the dough out on a well-floured surface, cut it into shapes, and set them on a large baking sheet. Or keep things simple and simply press the dough into an even 1/4-inch layer on a baking sheet. Score this large "cake" into smaller pieces: Use a knife to cut the dough into squares or rectangles or whatever shapes you like, but don't bother to separate the pieces; the pieces will bake back together but be easy to cut or break along that original cut line.
- Bake until golden, about 12 minutes. You can take them out now for chewier oatcakes or reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and bake until lightly browned, about 10 more minutes, for crisper oatcakes.
- When they have finished baking, if you've cut them into shapes, let them cool; if you've scored them, cut them apart while warm so they cool into squares (or rectangles or triangles or whatever you've cut them into).
- Serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- Cream shortening with molasses in very large bowl, then add in one beaten egg.
- Mix all dry ingredients adding milk in as you mix. Add Vanilla. Beat to a stiff dough.
- Flour your counter and lightly flour your rolling pin. Roll out to thickness of pie dough. (VERY THIN) This dough will make 9-10 layers.
- Cut out your circles with a scalloped pie pan. Place rounds of dough on a cookie sheet (I line it with wax paper) 2 at a time. And bake 12 minutes at 350°F.
- After all rounds are baked, put layers together with a homemade or sweet flavored applesauce.
- Let set before serving. Great also warm with vanilla ice cream.
- My time chart is if you also made your own applesauce (peeling coring etc.).

EFFIE'S CAKE
I am sure there are similar cake recipes out there with other names but this one is from a lady, Ethel Mae Creasy Kirk, that I worked with in 1965 and I have always called it Effie' s cake. Simply delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350° F. and butter 2 large baking sheets.
- In a food processor pulse oats until finely chopped. Cut butter into bits. Add butter to oats with all remaining ingredients except milk and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and pulse until mixture just forms a dough.
- On a lightly floured surface halve dough and wrap 1 half in plastic wrap. Roll out remaining dough 1/8 inch thick (about a 14-inch round) and with a 3-inch fluted round cutter cut out about 18 oatcakes.
- On baking sheets arrange oatcakes about 3/4 inch apart and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until pale golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer oatcakes to a rack to cool completely. Make more oatcakes with remaining dough in same manner. Oatcakes may be made 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
