I have bought some pinhead oatmeal, with the intention of making buscuits and/or cookies with it, but almost every recipe I see is for rolled oats. Any ideas, thanks?What kind of recipes is pinhead oatmeal used for?
Pinhead oats are less processed than rolled oats. So, they would need to be cooked before using in a cookie recipe. Think of pinhead oats as being like dry beans, tasty but they do take a while to cook. Use your pinhead oats for breakfast oatmeal (Try setting them up in your crockpot the night before. They really do take a long time to cook.) and buy rolled oats for cookies.What kind of recipes is pinhead oatmeal used for?
Oatmeal Potatoes
Here is a good but simple way to liven up the serving of potatoes - using one of Scotland's traditional ingredients - oatmeal. While pin-head oatmeal (the kernel has been cut in half and the floury meal taken out) any rough oatmeal (such as that used for real porridge) will do.
Ingredients:
Potatoes (new ones are best)
2 tablespoons pinhead oatmeal
1 tablespoon butter
Method:
Boil your normal quantity of potatoes in the usual way. While they are cooking, toast the oatmeal slowly on a tray in the oven using a low/medium heat. Drain the potatoes and add the tablespoon of butter. Stir to allow the butter to coat the potatoes. Then add the toasted oatmeal and stir again. Serve the potatoes with a sprinkling of finely chopped parsley or chives.
