More than just an Oatcake

They are one of our most versatile products and can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, thanks to their coarse ground, crunchy texture. Whether savoury or sweet, the possibilities are endless, and we’ve got a few ideas to help get you started:

• Classic Cheese and Charcuterie: Our Orkney Thick Oatcakes are the perfect base for a cheese board. Simply pair them with your favourite cheddar, brie, or goat cheese, along with cured meats and chutneys for a delightful appetiser or light meal.
• Sweet & simple: For a touch of sweetness, spread your oatcake with some butter and jam, drizzle with honey, or top with fresh fruit and yoghurt for a healthier and satisfying breakfast or brunch treat.
• Soup's on!: Oatcakes make excellent dippers for hearty soups and stews and with our Orkney Thick Oatcakes, you can be sure they’ll hold up against any chunky stews or delicious broths.

Beyond the flavour: Health benefits of oats

Beyond the delightful crunch and versatility of oatcakes, oats pack a serious punch when it comes to health benefits. But what makes them so good?

• High in Fibre: Oats are champions of fibre, especially the soluble kind called beta-glucan. This type of fibre slows down digestion, keeping you feeling fuller for longer. It also helps lower cholesterol levels and regulates blood sugar, making it a friend to your heart and digestive system.
• Source of Essential Nutrients: Wholegrain oats are bursting with essential nutrients like manganese, magnesium, zinc, iron, and B vitamins. These play crucial roles in bone health, energy production, muscle function, and overall well-being.
