Fairy HQ has turned into Ground Hog Day.

It started nearly two weeks ago with Pickle coming down with an almighty fever.

On the day he returned to school some 6 days after the fever started, Roo came down with the very same thing. ย Yesterday she returned to school with a huge sigh of relief from me…only for Pickle to come home with another almighty fever. ย Is it just me, or is the winter going on too long, without it being a proper winter at all?

Anyway, what it means is that I am sharing another ‘old’ recipe with you. One that has been knocking around for a year and that I can’t believe has made it on here before.

I believe that these oatcakes were originally inspired by a recipe in River Cottage Light and Easy…one of my favourite recipe books of the last few years. ย However, me being me, couldn’t possibly leave it alone and I came up with these.

They are light and crumbly yet flavoursome and delicious. ย The perfect match for my chickpea pate, or indeed my newly made gluten and dairy-free chicken liver pate if you want to pack in the nutrients and healing properties of foods (and of course, are not vegetarian).

P1070098_result

The addition of teff takes the nutritional values of these little biscuits to a higher lever than just a humble oatcake.

For those of you who haven’t noticed, I am rather a fan of teff. ย It is the smallest grain in the world (about the size of a pin head) yet packs a nutritional punch. ย It is high in dietary fibre as well as calcium (key in this house because Roo is both coeliac and dairy-free), iron and protein. ย I try and sneak it into everything I bake and it forms the cornerstone of my wholegrain gluten-free flour blend because of its properties.

Anyway, I hope you like the recipe. ย As always do let me know what you think of it if you decide to make it. ย I’ll be sharing the recipes for the pates next week after having spent another few days dealing with a poorly child. ย Wish me patience.

    These sound interesting, I don’t think Ive tried Teff before, where do you but it from? I’m going to have to go and take a look at your pates (sorry I don’t know how to do the little accent) now too as I love pate but rarely make my own.

      Hi Charlotte, you can buy teff from good health food stores or online. Of you could use my flour which has a high proportion of teff in it! It is a wonder grain…so full of nutrients.

    I’m not familiar with Teff flour, I will be honest. I rather like the idea that it packs a punch though. Hope your little ones are on the mend – I had 2 sick children last week too ๐Ÿ™ Thanks so much for joining in with #BakeoftheWeek

Vicki Montague, the Free From Fairy

Welcome!

Hi. I'm Vicki Montague, scientist and mum to 'Roo' (15) and 'Sunshine' (13). I'm a freelance recipe developer specialising in 'free from' food and spend many hours in my kitchen experimenting to create exciting healthy recipes that are all gluten-free & mainly dairy-free. In July 2016 I launched the world's first wholegrain, gluten-free and rice-free flour blends. In May 2018 I launched my first online programme to help people adapt to a gluten free life. I can be found at food festivals giving cookery demos and I love nothing more than teaching people how to cook and lead a positive wholesome life. Find out more about my story...
