Oatmeal

Oatmeal

EverydayDry

Oatmeal is a whole grain cereal made from dry, minimally processed oat groats, typically sold as rolled or steel-cut oats. It is renowned for its high soluble fiber content – particularly beta-glucan, which supports heart health – and provides sustained energy through complex carbohydrates. While naturally gluten-free, cross-contamination risks require verification for sensitive individuals, and its neutral flavor profile allows versatile use in both sweet and savory preparations when cooked with liquid.
