Effie's Biscuits
Lightly sweet with a bright touch of salt, Effie's biscuits are more refined than a cookie and more dynamic than a cracker. Since 2007, Effie's Homemade has focused on creating the best, most satisfying small-batch biscuits while staying true to real recipes and quality ingredients. Whether enjoyed on their own or paired with other treats, Effie's biscuits honor a rich farmhouse tradition and continue the spirit of sharing simple pleasures.

The Story Behind Effie's Oatcakes
It all started with an oatcake. In Nova Scotia, Effie MacLellan learned a generations-old family farmhouse recipe for oatcakes—a beloved biscuit that was a staple in her pantry. When Effie moved to Massachusetts in the 1950s, she brought this cherished recipe with her, always ready to offer oatcakes to friends, family, and neighborhood kids. Years later, Effie's daughter Joan, along with her longtime friend Irene, recognized that these oatcakes were too exceptional to keep to themselves, and decided to share their family tradition with a wider audience.
