What it is

Oat extract is a liquid or powder made from oats, a type of grain. It is produced by processing oat groats, which are the hulled kernels of oats, to isolate specific components or create a concentrated form.

Why it's used

Oat extract is often used to add a natural oat flavor and aroma to foods. It can also contribute to texture and mouthfeel. It is commonly found in breakfast cereals, baked goods, and snacks.

Health notes

Oat extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Oats themselves are known for containing beta-glucan, a type of soluble fiber that may help manage cholesterol levels. JECFA has evaluated oats and their components. No specific health concerns are associated with the typical consumption of oat extract in foods.

Allergen info

Oats are not one of the nine major allergens. However, oats can be contaminated with gluten during growing or processing if they are not certified gluten-free. Consumers with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should look for certified gluten-free oat products.
