What Are Oat Groats?

Oat groats are whole oat kernels with only the tough, inedible outer hull removed. They retain all three parts of the grain, the bran, germ, and endosperm, making them the least processed and most nutrient-rich form of oats. Because they’re so close to their natural state, oat groats deliver more fiber, protein, and minerals than rolled or quick oats. Their hearty, nutty flavor and chewy texture make them perfect for warm breakfasts, savory bowls, and healthy grain salads.

Difference Between Oat Groats and Rolled Oats

The key difference lies in processing and texture.

Type Processing Texture Best Use
Oat Groats Whole kernels with minimal processing Chewy, hearty, nutty Grain bowls, porridge, salads
Rolled Oats Steamed and flattened for quick cooking Soft, smooth Oatmeal, baking, granola

Because oat groats undergo minimal processing, they take longer to cook but offer superior nutrition and a delightful, wholesome bite.

Allergen Statement: Product packed in a facility that also handles nuts, peanuts, soy, sesame, and wheat. 5 lb size only.
