Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole rolled oats
Instructions
- Prepare the oats: Place 2 cups of whole rolled oats into a clean, dry food processor bowl.
- Blend into flour: Process the oats until they reach a fine, powdery consistency, stopping occasionally to stir and scrape down the sides to ensure even grinding.
- Store the oat flour: Transfer the ground oat flour into an airtight container and keep it in a cool, dry place until ready to use in recipes.
Notes
- Use oat flour as a one-to-one substitute for regular flour in baking recipes for a gluten-free option if certified gluten-free oats are used.
- Make small batches at a time to ensure freshness.
- If you don't have a food processor, a high-powered blender can also be used to grind the oats.
- Store oat flour in an airtight container to prevent moisture and extend shelf life.
