Oat flour
Baking with oat flour? A great choice! Oat flour is rich in fibre and gives bakes a soft texture with a subtle nutty flavour. Delicious for pancakes, muffins, bread and biscuits.
What is oat flour?
Oat flour is finely ground oats, usually made from whole oat flakes. It is often used as a healthy alternative to wheat flour. Compared to standard flour, oat flour contains more fibre, vitamins and minerals, allowing you to bake not only delicious but also nutritious products.
What can you bake with oat flour?
Oat flour is a versatile ingredient that gives bakes a soft texture and a slightly full, nutty flavour. It can be used in many recipes, especially when you want to replace part of the flour.
You can use oat flour for:
• Pancakes and waffles
• Muffins and cakes
• Biscuits and granola bars
• Bread or banana bread
• Breakfast bakes such as oat muffins
In many recipes, you can replace part of the wheat flour with oat flour. A ratio of around 25 to 50 percent often works well, depending on the recipe.
Which types of oat flour can you find at Baktotaal?
Wholemeal oat flour: this flour is made from the whole oat grain. As a result, it is high in fibre and has a full, slightly nutty flavour.
Oat fibre: a very high-fibre product often used in low-carbohydrate or gluten-free recipes. It absorbs a lot of moisture and can help improve the structure of bakes.
Organic oat flour: produced without chemical pesticides and artificial fertilisers, making it a good choice if you prefer baking with organic ingredients.
Combining oat flour with other products from our range
This type of flour can be used alongside other flours such as almond flour, coconut flour and wholemeal wheat flour to create a good balance in texture and flavour. Honey, nuts, seeds and dried fruit also pair well with it. Use baking powder or bicarbonate of soda to make bakes lighter. For bread, adding a portion of strong wheat flour can help the dough rise better.
