I want to make oatmeal biscuits. Specifically, just plain oatmeal

If you use plain oatmeal and boil it first it will turn into coprolite

couldn't you just make biscuits normally and substitute oat flour?

>>7924368
That would be flour, sugar, and butter. Not really plain enough.

You want to make biscuits with just oats and water? Why would you do this to yourself?

You can make hardtack with oat flour I guess, but I don't know why you'd willingly eat it in an era where plenty of ingredients (not to mention refrigerators) are available.

Are you using "biscuit' in the commonwealth usage or American?

If its the former you should use America's test kitchen for a crispy oatmeal "cookie". Trust me its a biscuit in the crispy sense.

If you are being some meme-ing faggot trust me when I say it will taste like shit and be almost inedible.

Use salt and water at least, and sugar if you have any sanity. Grind half the oats with a food processor or coffee grinder into powerder, mix back with whole oats and add water till its a workable stiff dough and salt/sugar to taste. Make sure its well blended and a solid dough throughout.

Roll out between greased plastic wrap and use a cookie cutter. You'll have to bake it at pretty low heat (maybe 200f?) for a long time to get the moisture out and a solid cookie that wont go bad.

Gonna be horrible without softening it in water first. Basically a shittier ship biscuit.

I like oatmeal, but it's too hot to eat oatmeal. Cold oatmeal is gummy. Overnight oats taste raw. And granola is kind of impossible without syrup or peanut butter or whatever.

I'll look into hardtack. I don't want to break my teeth though.

Dude you need to seek mental help. I think you may be retarded. You just wasted everyone's time with your dumb-ass request. We can't magically make oatmeal biscuits that taste good and don't break your teeth with no other ingredients or techniques. How the fuck do you think cooking works?

Granola bars or oatmeal cereals are clearly what want just buy some shits cheap.

Consider making oat milk. It's basically oats soaking in water overnight and mix it in a blender.
When I make it I add a bit of cinnamon but you can keep it as plain as you like.

I don't know.. I just had an idea and I thought I'd ask about it.

I found a recipe for oat biscuits that contains : flour, oats, sugar, butter, syrup, milk.

Why does that work? What keeps it edible?

Could I just not cook them as long?

(Granola bars aren't cheap, by the way.)

Is an oatmeal bar (chewy or hard, but preferably chewy) without added sugar and fats too much to ask for?

>>7924431
yes.
