High Lane Oatcakes Est. 1980
High Lane Oatcakes was established in June 1980, taking over an existing bakery, which went back over 100 years, and was using the original recipe, which we bought with the business.
The more we got involved in the making of the oatcakes, we began to experiment with the ingredients to try to enhance the Oatcake taste, texture and appearance. After numerous tasting sessions with friends and among ourselves, we finally arrived at what we believe to be the ideal oatcake. The trusted recipe we developed is the same recipe we use today.
The Staffordshire Oatcake, a regional delicacy exclusive to the Potteries area of Staffordshire until recently, are now available by mail order through our family-run Oatcake Bakery, first established over 80 years ago. Staffordshire Oatcakes are similar to a pancake but made from white flour, oatmeal, yeast, etc. Oatcake bakers have their own closely guarded recipe.
