Rolled oats or Old Fashioned oats, formally named Avena sativa are a type of lightly processed whole-grain food. Traditionally, They are made from oat groats. They’re a gluten-free whole grain and a great source of important vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. Oatmeal have many health benefits including weight loss, lower blood sugar levels and a reduced risk of heart disease. They are most often the main ingredient in granola and muesli. They can be further processed into a coarse powder, which, when cooked, becomes a thick liquid like broth. Finer oatmeal powder is often used as baby food. Rolled oats can be eaten without further heating or cooking: The oats are soaked for 1–6 hours in water-based liquid, such as water, milk, or plant-based dairy substitutes.
