Plain oatcakes are savoury biscuits made from oats. The figures here describe plain, shop-bought oatcakes, which mainly provide carbohydrate and fat, along with fibre and protein. Per 100g, they contain 63g of carbohydrate, 20g of fat, 9.4g of fibre and 2g of salt.
Carbohydrate provides energy, while fibre supports normal bowel function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, as salt contributes to dietary sodium. Oatcakes also contain saturated fat, which may be relevant for people watching their saturated fat intake. The amount eaten and any toppings affect the overall nutrient intake. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
