There’s a very good recipe for them in the Cranks original book - it’s basically cheese, butter, oats and, in our case, some herbs and chilli powder, occasionally supplemented with pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.
5oz oats
6oz cheese
1 egg
2oz melted butter
Rosemary
Salt & pepper

Sling in bowl and mix; whack in oven at about 180°c for a half-hour or so; scoff. :o)

Found this on netmums, which looks nice. Haven’t tried it, but I think I will soon. If you do, let me know how you get on!


2 eggs
50g butter
150g grated cheese (use less cheese or reduced fat cheese if preferred)
150g porridge oats
All you need to do is mix the ingredients and press into a greased 8 inch/20cm tin. Get your children to join in if they fancy it. Then bake for about 30 to 40 minutes at 180C/Gas 4 until golden brown.

Once it’s cool, cut it into slices.

Variation: add some grated or finely chopped veg.

Suitable for freezing
