Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup oats (rolled or instant) See notes for using steel cut oats.
Cups - Metric

Instructions

  • Food Processor Method: Add oats to a food processor and pulse in short bursts until the oats are broken down into smaller bits. Use a rubber spatula to remove any oat bits on the side or bottom of the bowl.
  • Repeat processing until a flour texture is achieved. This may take several minutes using a food processor.
  • Blender Method: Add oats to a blender jar and pulse in short bursts until the oats are broken down into smaller bits. Use a rubber spatula to remove oat bits on the side or bottom of the jar.
    Oats are in the bottom of a blender jar.
  • Repeat processing until a flour mixture is achieved. This will take longer for steel-cut oats.
    Blended oat flour is in the bottom of a blender jar, having recently been blended.
  • Store oat flour in an airtight container. It will keep at room temperature for up to 2 months or in the fridge for up to 3 months. Oat flour can be frozen in freezer-safe containers for up to 6 months.

Notes

Use a high-speed blender to process steel-cut oats. Because these oats are more fibrous, it will take longer processing time and will produce more flour.
