Mix 225 g (1⅓ cups) oatmeal and 60 g (½ cup) wholemeal flour in a bowl.

Add ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp sugar and ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda to the dry ingredients and mix well.

Cut 60 g (¼ cup) of butter into cubes and add to the oatmeal mixture.

Rub the butter into the dry ingredients until it is the consistency of breadcrumbs.

Boil the kettle and add enough water to form a stiff dough.

Sprinkle a little flour on a work surface or pastry mat and also on your rolling pin. Roll out the dough to thickness of about ½ cm.

Cut into rounds (I use a 9 cm cookie cutter and get 12 large oatcakes). For more oatcakes use a smaller cutter.

Preheat your air fryer for 3 minutes at 170C.

Lay the oatcakes on the tray or trays of your air fryer and bake at 170 C for 20 minutes.

If using an air fryer with multiple trays, then swap the trays after 10 minutes.

Cut your oatcakes to a size to fit four into your air fryer and bake the oatcakes in batches.

Place a piece of baking parchment in the base of your air fryer and bake each batch at 170C for 15 minutes.

Place the oatcakes onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment or a non-stick baking mat.

Carefully lift the oatcakes onto a cooling tray and leave to cool.

Serve the oatcakes with butter and cheese.
