• Groats are the whole oat grain (before it has been rolled). They are similar to cooking brown rice and will take at least 45 mins. We like to use them in soups and slow cooker recipes (a bit like using pearl barley) and as a replacement for rice in curries. We have a stella recipe for caramelised pumpkin risotto on our website! and of course the other option is to roll them fresh, using one of our hand oat rollers #oats #dadsoats #groats #freshlyrolledoats #australianproduce ⠀ Photo by @allicampbell

  • Figs are in season 🍃... and its such as short season! so we need to make the most of these delicious gifts from Mother Nature while we can. We have a beautiful old fig tree on our family farm that has been there for just as many generations as we have been growing oats (5 in fact!). Figs have a few things in common with oats so they match up well! Figs are high in fiber and a good source of several essential minerals, including magnesium, manganese, calcium (which promotes bone density), copper, and potassium (which helps lower blood pressure), as well as vitamins, principally K and B6. Super healthy and delicious. #figs #oats #breakfast #porridge photo by @allicampbell

  • Muesli creations! Love coming up with different combos. The Traditional Oats work best in muesli mixes. Have you tried adding coconut flakes, chia seeds or goji berries to yours? I also love fresh pommegrante seeds when they're in season #muesli #createyourown #mueslirecipe #oats #dadsoats photo by @allicampbell

  • We’ve been celebrating the women in our business this week for international women’s day - Alicia, Kate & Lou ... and most importantly Mum! She keeps us all organised and is a very significant member of the team at Dad’s Oats. In the middle of harvest, Mum is running up lunches and cool drinks to the header and truck drivers, babysitting grandkids, helping at markets, doing special oat deliveries and marketing by word of mouth. The brand might be called ‘Dad’s’ Oats But it wouldn’t exist without the entire family all working behind it to make it happen. For this, we are so grateful. Thanks team 🙌🌱💚👨🏼‍🌾👩🏻‍🌾👩‍💻👷🏻‍♀️👨🏼‍🔧👨🏻‍🌾 #family #smallbusiness #dadsoats #internationalwomensday

  • Best type of oats for smoothies? We recommend the quick oats because they have already been cut into smaller/finer pieces. However if you have a strong blender / nutra bullet you will find using the traditional oats is also absolutely fine. We recommend using min 1/4 cup oats and these will ensure you get some long lasting energy from your smoothie and the added nutritional benefits of course! This smoothie has been designed by @simplyorganicfoods 🙌 you can find the recipe link on their page. #smoothie #oats #dadsoats

  • Resistant Starch Oats are one of the most convenient ways to add resistant starch to your diet. What is resistant starch? Most of the carbs you consume, such as those in grains, pasta and potatoes, are starches. Some types of starch are resistant to digestion, hence the term resistant starch. Resistant starch functions similarly to soluble, fermentable fiber, helping feed the friendly bacteria in your gut and increasing the production of short-chain fatty acids like butyrate. Studies have shown that it can help with weight loss and benefit heart health, as well as improve blood sugar control, insulin sensitivity and digestive health. Did you know, letting your cooked oats cool for several hours or overnight could increase the resistant starch even further? Cooked, cooled or uncooked – Oats are a great way to up your resistant starch intake! (Information sourced from Healthline)
