Can you make Oatmeal at home?
I generally have a box of Quaker Oats (Old fashioned) in my pantry, since we love having overnight oats many a times for breakfast. So, I always make Oatmeal out of the regular Quaker oats. Just pulse the Oats in food processor a few times. Keep checking the consistency of the flour that you may like. And there you have your own Oatmeal at home!
Oatmeal Cookies – Tips
Baking with oatmeal is not that easy, since it is a gluten free flour. Gluten is the protein which is present in some flours like all-purpose, whole wheat etc, which helps hold the food together. Gluten helps in binding the cookies, just like a glue.
Baking cookies with oatmeal can be quite tricky and you may have to increase the amount of moisture or leavening agent, since replacing oats flour completely may result in dried out, crumbly cookies. As you get comfortable baking with oats flour, you can try to increase the amount of oatmeal in each of the bakes.
