I have alot of oats. Can someone give me some easy recipes or ideas how to use them up.

flapjacks

Thank u. I just found a simple flapjack recipe from bbc good foods, will try that. Any more ideas welcomed....

Overnight oats

Look for soupdragons flapjack recipe with condensed milk. It's amazing

Or toast them in the oven & make granola. I tend to toast the oats & then add some crushed nuts & seeds & mix with some warmed honey, but butter & vanilla. Have it sprinkled on yogurt & fruit in the mornings. Yum.

If you haven't any of the other stuff you could just toast the oats & sprinkle

Oats last forever, not like they are going out of date. Overnight oats are delicious for breakfast.

I use them in a topping for veggie crumble.
A handful of oats can also be added to most stews and soups that a e cooked down, they are a good bulking agent and not really identifiable as oats once cooked.

Thank u for the suggestions. Anyone tried making cakes with oats?

No but I absolutely love oatcakes-especially seeded ones so that going to be my next attempted homemade thing!

Muffins recipes.sainsburys.co.uk/recipes/baking/oaty-banana-mini-muffins (I don’t make these ‘mini’, I just do them normal size and bake for a bit longer). Here’s a blueberry recipe if you don’t like bananas www.asdagoodliving.co.uk/food/recipes/blueberry-oat-muffins

You can add them to a fruit crumble mix.

Blueberry muffins look nice, might try them with raisins.

Anzac biscuits
Banana oat cake
Chocolate oat cake
Muesli cake

I've also used a food processor to chop oats finer when adding to biscuits and cakes if you don't want the whole oaty feel in it.
