Basic Cooking Instructions for Oat Groats

Contributed by: Bob's Red Mill Natural Foods

Topped with brown sugar, cinnamon and a bit of butter, this makes a delicious breakfast cereal. Garnish with your favorite seasoning, vegetables and/or meats for a fantastic pilaf.

Directions

For four hearty servings, bring 1 cup oat groats, 3 cups water and 1/4 tsp salt to a boil. Cover, turn heat down and simmer for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes.


Double Boiler Method

The night before, in the upper part of a double boiler, combine 1 cup oat groats, 1/4 tsp salt and 4 cups of boiling water. Cover and cook for 30 min. to 1 hour. Turn off heat and let cereal remain in boiler until morning. Reheat and serve in morning.

Makes 4 servings.

The ingredients list says 4 cups of water, the directions say 2. I think the list is right.

The correct ratio for preparing oat groats is 1 cup groats to 3 cups water plus 1/4 tsp salt, if desired. If you'd like to try the double boiler method, you will need to use 4 cups of water.

Oat Groats are very hard when dry and cooking to soften is recommended.
