Cut shortening into oats, flour, sugar, baking soda and salt until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms a stiff dough.

Spread raspberry jam on oatcakes cut with the biscuit cutter; place oatcake cut with doughnut cutter on top. Fill centers with raspberry jam. Dust tops of oatcakes with confectioners' sugar.
