How to Use Whole Oat Groats
Whole oat groats can be cooked into a creamy and satisfying porridge by simmering in water or milk until tender, or used as a hearty base in grain bowls. Add them to soups, stews, and salads for extra texture and nutrition. You can also grind oat groats into fresh oat flour for baking or use them in savoury dishes much like rice. Soaking the groats before cooking can help reduce the cooking time and improve digestibility.
Nutritional Benefits
Whole oat groats are rich in complex carbohydrates, soluble fibre (especially beta-glucans), and plant-based protein, supporting sustained energy release and digestive health.

Customer reviews
I found that these made a rather chewier porridge than rolled oats do, but none the less very tasty.
