Ingredients

250 ml water plus extra, to glaze
1 cup rolled oats
½ tsp salt
2 ½ cups wholegrain spelt flour as needed
3 tbsp canola oil
¼ cup sesame seeds optional

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine the oats, water, salt, and 1.5 cups of the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat on medium speed until combined.
Mix in the oil. Gradually mix in enough additional spelt flour to make a dough that pulls away from the sides of the bow
Roll the mixture into 18 equal balls. Place on the prepared baking sheets and press down on each ball with the bottom of a flat glass to flatten them into 8mm/⅓-inch-thick discs.
Brush with water to glaze and sprinkle with the sesame seeds, if desired.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
