What it is

Wholegrain rolled oats are whole oat groats that have been dehulled, steamed, and then rolled flat. This process makes them cook faster and creates a texture common in breakfast cereals and baked goods. Oats are a type of cereal grain grown worldwide.

Why it's used

Rolled oats are primarily used as a whole grain ingredient in foods like oatmeal, granola, and breakfast bars. They provide a chewy texture and a mild, nutty flavor. Manufacturers also use them in cookies, muffins, and other baked goods for added fiber and texture.

Health notes

Oats are considered a whole grain and are a good source of dietary fiber, particularly beta-glucan. The FDA recognizes that soluble fiber from oats may help reduce the risk of heart disease. JECFA has evaluated oats and found no safety concerns. They are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food.

Allergen info

Oats are not one of the nine major allergens. However, oats can be contaminated with gluten from wheat, barley, or rye during growing or processing. Products labeled 'gluten-free oats' are grown and processed to avoid this cross-contamination.
