Unfortunately, many are full of heavily processed ingredients. A black mark in my book. That they’re expensive is a double damn. That so many present as healthy when they’re way over the top in calories? Well, that’s a triple damn! Why not just have a piece of cake and be done with it!!

Scottish? Probably not, but Scottish Oatcakes Oatmeal Pancakes are what always called these pancakes. Because of the oats. These pancakes are great; the outside is a beautiful, lacy, crispy contrast to the soft, moist interior, and they’re hearty and healthy and delicious all at the same time.

Just in case someone hasn’t heard of this lovely recipe and even lovelier way to showcase it, here’s how I make my overnight Muesli (and sometimes Oatmeal.) Simple, wholesome, easy and portable, this is a breakfast to pull out ready from the fridge and eat, or throw in a bag or briefcase – breakfast on the go.
