Characteristics of Rolled Oats Old Fashioned | 1.19kg:

Processing & Texture:

Steamed and Rolled: Whole oat groats are steamed to make them soft and pliable, then pressed flat by large rollers. This stabilizes the healthy oils and gives them their characteristic flat, flake-like shape.

Chewy, Substantial Texture: Because they are thicker than “Quick” or “Instant” oats, they retain more of their structure during cooking. The result is a hearty, creamy porridge with a pleasant, chewy bite.

Holds Shape: They are excellent in recipes where you want the oat texture to remain distinct, such as in granola, muffins, and cookies.

Taste & Ingredients:

100% Whole Grain Oats: The ingredient list is pure and simple. No added sugar, salt, or preservatives.

Nutty & Robust Flavor: They have a heartier, more pronounced oat flavor compared to quick oats, which is why they are preferred by many oatmeal enthusiasts.

Primary Uses:

1. Classic Stovetop Oatmeal:

The ideal choice for a traditional, hearty breakfast. Cooks in 5-7 minutes on the stovetop for a creamy yet chewy porridge.

2. Baking (The Preferred Choice for Many):

Granola: Their sturdy structure helps create delicious clusters.

Cookies & Muffins: Provide a more distinct, chewy texture compared to quick oats.

Crisps & Crumbles: Perfect for the topping, offering a satisfying crunch.

3. Overnight Oats:

Soak in milk or yogurt overnight in the fridge. They soften perfectly by morning while still maintaining a much more substantial and chewy texture than quick oats would.

4. Meat Substitute & Binder:

Can be used to make a vegetarian “meat” loaf or patties.

Acts as a great binder in meatballs and burgers.
