Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams mashed potatoes (cooked, unsalted)
- 100 grams rolled oats (or finely milled oats)
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
- 2 tablespoons milk (as needed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes and rolled oats. Mix well to combine.
Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper (if using) to the potato and oat mixture. Stir until evenly distributed.
Cut the butter into small pieces and rub it into the mixture using your fingers or a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. The dough should be firm but not sticky. Be cautious not to overwork it.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to a thickness of about 3-4 mm (1/8 inch).
Cut the dough into your desired shapes using cookie cutters, a knife, or a round glass. Transfer the shapes to the prepared baking tray.
Prick the surface of each cracker a few times with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow the crackers to cool in the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the crackers as a snack or with your favorite spreads, cheeses, or soups. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
