Smiling Wife

Sun, Feb 10 2013, 6:05 am

I searched for Granola recipes but I am not sure which oats they call for, most call for quick cook oats/instant oats but I have a ton of the "other" kind that takes much longer to cook, any recipes? Need to go through this stuff before pesach...!! Maybe I will make something and send it as mishloach manos but I dont even know what to use this type of oats for!

Thanks!

Make flapjacks (plenty of recipes on internet)
Use for crumble topping.

You can grind them and use to make oatmeal/porridge (even non quick cooking one takes only 3min or so once grounded). Great winter breakfast.

Similarly grind into flour, use for schnitzel coating or add to regular flour for making biscuits, pancakes, kugel etc.

make granola
you can eat it with yogurt or you can make trail mixes for snacks.
you bake the oats with brown sugar, cinn, and oil...then add toasted seeds, craisins...
you can find exact recipes online

Granola is fine with regular (not quick) oats.

You could add them to vegetable kugel. I never made it myself but I bought them for the kids this Shabbos and they loved it.

I use a ton of oats in my challah (along with whole wheat flour).

I use oats in place of flour for brownies.

My recipe goes something like:

2 cups oats, plus water until "oatmeal consistency"
3 packets Stevia sweetener (or 1 cup sugar)
1 cup cocoa, plus one T. coffee
1 tsp baking powder
Taste dough to make sure it's not bitter. Add more sugar if needed. Then add:
2 eggs.
Bake.

I grind mine up into flour and use that to make my kids pancakes in place of wheat flour.

You can put the on a baking sheet and toast in oven at 350 for about half an hour, or until brown and fragrant. Use that for your granola base.

That's what I'd do. I make different kinds, including one with three kinds of chips (white, milk and dark chocolate) and dried cranberries.

Oatmeal for breakfast (doesn't take long, the kids love it for breakfast on Sunday morning)

Oatmeal raisin cookies- I make a triple batch at a time, and each batch calls for 3 cups of oats (I put in 6-7 for the triple batch).

Funny, I once bought the quick oats by accident and had the same panic as OP about what I could do with it!
