Oat Flour and Wellness

• Provides carbohydrates as a source of dietary energy.
• Naturally provides plant-based protein and dietary fibre, including oat beta-glucan.
• Naturally contains phenolic compounds known as avenanthramides.

Please Note

• Oat flour has no gluten network like wheat flour, so it may not suit a direct 1:1 swap, particularly in yeast breads.
• Standard oat flour is not gluten-free. Oats are often exposed to wheat, barley or rye, and some people with coeliac disease react to oat avenins. People with coeliac disease should choose oat flour specifically produced and labelled gluten-free.
• Anyone with an oat allergy should avoid it.
