This recipe makes more oatcakes than you’ll need initially, but they keep well (see Get ahead) for future nibbling.

Give these easy canapés a go for any NYE or canapé party you might be throwing. Homemade oat crackers are topped with smoked salmon and a herby cream cheese. 

Small handful chives, finely chopped

Small handful dill, finely chopped
