Whole Oat Groats

Title: Whole Oat Groats


whole oat groats for breakfast

Servings 4 | Calories per serving 350-450

Ingredients

1 cup whole oat groats


Toppings to add at breakfast time (per person):

1 cup frozen berries (or fresh, if in season)

1 tablespoons hemp seeds

1/4 cup kale (stems removed, massaged)

1 teaspoons cinnamon (or spices of choice)



Recipe Instructions

  1. Place the oat groats in a colander and rinse under running water.

  2. Add oat groats plus 4 1/2 cups of water to a pot and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cover with a lid.

  3. No need to stir while they are cooking. You will want to check them every 15 - 20 minutes to make sure that there is enough water. If they start to stick to the bottom then add 1/2 cup of water to keep them from sticking.

  4. The oat groats are done when they are soft but still have a chewy texture. If you like them a little chewier you can only simmer for 45 minutes. If you’d like to make them as soft as possible, simmer for up to 60 mins. Just know they will always have a bit of chew.

  5. Once cooked, portion into 4 servings.

  6. Add topping in the morning: I prefer frozen berries with cinnamon and kale. Choose toppings that you would typically enjoy over oatmeal.
