40 m  ·

Let’s talk lazy weekend brunching! These crispy Oat & Cheese Hashbrowns add such a great twist to your weekend breakfast – they’re quick and easy to whip up, and can also be made gluten free! #FlahavansOats

Serves: 4 | Prep time: 35 mins

Ingredients
4 medium-sized baking potatoes, baked and cooled
80g Flahavan’s Oats (/Flahavan’s Gluten Free Oats)
65g Cheddar cheese, grated
1 tsp fresh thyme
40g butter
300g tomatoes, on the vine
300g portobello mushrooms
8 rashers of streaky bacon
Salt and pepper, to taste
Glug of olive oil

Method
1. Peel then grate the pre-cooked baked potatoes. Mix the grated, cooked potato with Flahavan’s Gluten Free Irish Oats, cheddar cheese and thyme. Season generously.
2. Heat half the butter and a splash of olive oil in a medium-sized, non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat. Once sizzling, add the oat and potato mixture to the pan. Fry for a couple of minutes, then gently pat the mixture down with the back of a spoon so it forms a flat round cake. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
3. Next, carefully place a large plate on top of the frying pan and invert so the hash brown sits cooked-side-up on the plate. Add the remaining half of the butter and another splash of oil to the frying pan, then slide the hash brown back into the pan to cook the other side. Continue cooking for a further 10 minutes until crispy and golden.
4. While the hash brown is cooking, pre-heat the grill to medium. Line a baking tray with foil and arrange the tomatoes, mushrooms and streaky bacon on the tray. Grill for 10-15 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
5. To serve, cut the oaty hash brown into wedges and portion out the streaky bacon, tomatoes and mushrooms. See less

Think you’re looking at an indulgent desert? Think again! We love Roz Purcell’s Simple Oat Pancake recipe. Try it out today! PS. That’s Greek Yougurt not whipped cream!

Ingredients
50g Flahavan’s Oats
1 egg
1 1/2 tbsp Greek yoghurt, plus extra to serve
1 tsp honey or maple syrup
1/2 tsp gluten-free baking powder (regular will work also)
1 scoop (30g) protein powder (optional)
Coconut oil, for frying
1 tub Greek yogurt
Fresh berries
Method
1 To make the oat pancakes, blend all the ingredients except the oil in a food processor until smooth.
I use my NutriBullet for this.
2 Heat a little coconut oil in a non-stick frying pan, then wipe it out with kitchen paper.
3 Add spoonfuls of the batter to the pan – it’s a thick batter, so make small pancakes.
4 Cook for 2 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown and ready to be turned. Flip over and cook for 1–2 minutes more, until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
5 Serve warm with a dollop of Greek yoghurt and fresh berries.

A sweeter version of this bread can be made by adding some dried fruits or you can use chopped sundried tomatoes and basil for a savoury version.
To prevent the treacle from sticking to the spoon, coat it with oil before use.
