What’s our secret?
We’re not your run of the mill oats…
#Flahavans #Flahavansoats #oats #Irish #familybusiness #food #notyourrunofthemilloats
Ingredients
- 225g (8oz) plain flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 150g (5oz) caster sugar
- 75g (3oz) Flahavan’s Oat Bran
- 100g (4oz) cranberries
- 25g (1oz) icing sugar
- sifted Zest of an orange
- 1 egg
- Beaten 300ml (½ pint)of Milk
- 50g (2oz) melted butter or sunflower oil
Method:
- Sift the flour into a bowl with the baking powder. Add the sugar and the oat bran and mix. Toss the cranberries into the icing sugar. Add to the bowl with orange zest and stir to mix.
- Place the egg, milk and melted butter or sunflower oil into another bowl and beat lightly. Stir into the dry ingredients. Just do this casually – there is no need to over mix.
- Line a muffin tin with baking cases. Spoon the mixture into the lined muffin tin.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 200°C /400°F / Gas Mark 6 for around 15 minutes – or until risen and golden.
Serve warm or cold. Quick Tip Oat Bran is also great as a coating for fish before frying.

This is one of Mary Flahavan’s signature recipes – enjoy!
Serves Makes 1 loaf|Takes 60 minutes
1 large tub (500ml) of natural yogurt
1 beaten egg
1 tbsp. treacle (optional)
300g (12oz) Flahavan’s Progress Oatlets (or Flahavan’s Gluten Free Oats)
2 tsp bread soda
2 tbsp. mixed seeds (optional)
½ tsp salt (optional)
Place the yoghurt, beaten egg and treacle in a bowl and stir well.
Mix the oats, bread soda, seeds and salt in a separate bowl, add to the yogurt mixture and stir thoroughly.
Place in a greased or parchment lined 2lb loaf tin, sprinkle with oats and bake at 180°C / 350°F / Gas mark 4 for 30 minutes.
Lower temperature to 150°C / 300°F / Gas mark 2 and cook for a further 30 minutes.
Mary’s Tip:
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.
