Grind 1 cup oatmeal in blender a until fine. Add salt, brown sugar, flour and soda. Cut in butter. Add honey, and buttermilk. Mix to a firm dough. Form into rounds and place in refrigerator for about an hour (or more if you wish).

Roll very thin on a floured surface. Cut with animal (or other shape) cookie cutters. This goes faster with two people as it's a bit labor intensive. .

Bake at 400 degrees until brown (6 to 10 minutes). Bake leftover pieces too.

Watch closely as these from from golden, to brown, to dark down in a minute or so.

I make these in one inch letters and numbers for my 2-year-old grandaughter to identify and eat. She gets a treat and learns the alphabet all at the same time. Her mom like them because they're low sugar and "healthier" than most cookies. Clever Grandpa !!
