Two longtime friends, Joan and Irene, founded Effie's Homemade right here in Boston. Their oatcake is the result of a family recipe from Nova Scotia.
Effie's Oatcakes are a delicious, versatile biscuit: a bit sweet, a bit salty and both crisp and buttery, these oatcakes offer a perfect snack with a cup of tea or coffee. We also love to pair them with a fresh goat cheese or a sharp blue cheese.
They’re slightly sweet so they make a great snack with coffee but they are great with a sweet/salty combination of cheese with a fig jam topping. I’m sure there are lots of great possibilities but I ended up eating them all before I could try other combinations! Very reminiscent of European shortbread cookies.
