How many ways shall I praise thee! Fiber,Fiber, Fiber, Protein, Antioxidant, Vitamins, Complex carbs and much more. Of the three varieties usually seen- Steel cut are groats chopped into smaller pieces, are very hearty, take longest to cook 25-30 min, but has the lowest glycemic index!
Rolled Oats are groats steamed and rolled into flakes so they take less time to cook and are very versatile; Instant Oats are steamed longer and rolled into flakes so they take the shortest time to cook but have the highest glycemic index!
Of the three, I typically use Gluten-free Rolled Oats for overnight oats or in any of my burgers to replace bread crumbs and also in baking recipes. The featured recipes are all made using Gluten-free rolled oats from Trader Joes.
