Ground oats are an ingredient obtained by pulverizing or crushing whole oats until they become a fine powder or coarse flour, depending on the grinding level. It is a versatile and practical way to use oats in the kitchen, especially in baking recipes, smoothies, breads, and as a base for various healthy preparations.
Oats are a cereal native to temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, with a long history of cultivation in Europe, Asia, and North America. Their cultivation spread globally due to their adaptability to cold climates and high nutritional value.
Regarding their properties, ground oats are an excellent source of soluble fiber, especially beta-glucans, which help control cholesterol levels and promote digestive health. Furthermore, they provide protein, B-complex vitamins, minerals such as iron and magnesium, and are low in saturated fats. This makes them an ideal choice for those seeking nutritious, energizing, and easy-to-digest recipes.
Depending on the country or region in Latin America, ground oats may also be known as oat flour, powdered oats, or simply fine oats. They are very common in traditional recipes for breads, cookies, smoothies, and healthy breakfasts.
