Quick Oats
Quick oats are a minimally processed whole grain oat variety that has been pre-steamed, rolled thin, and dried to significantly reduce cooking time. While offering the same heart-healthy soluble fiber (beta-glucan) as steel-cut or rolled oats, their flattened structure allows them to soften rapidly in hot water or milk, making them ideal for quick porridge or baking. These oats retain most nutrients from the oat groat but have a softer texture compared to less processed oat varieties.
