Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Steel Cut Oats, 24 oz (Pack of 4) — Whole Grain, Non-GMO, Vegan

Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Steel Cut Oats are whole oat groats chopped on a steel burr mill to create a hearty, chewy hot cereal that’s high in soluble fiber and provides about 5 grams of protein per serving.

These steel cut oats come from whole grain oat groats that are precisely cut rather than flattened, producing a dense texture and a nutty flavor. Packaged as a convenient 24 oz bag and sold in a pack of four, this gluten-free, non-GMO option fits vegetarian, vegan, and kosher lifestyles. Steel cut oats need a little more time to cook than rolled oats, but their satisfying bite and versatility in sweet or savory preparations make them a favorite for cooks who prefer substance and nutrition in their meals.

What makes steel cut oats different from rolled oats?

Steel cut oats are the intact groat cut into small pieces, so they retain a firmer texture and nuttier flavor after cooking compared with steamed and flattened rolled oats. Because they are less processed, they take longer to cook and produce a chewier cereal that holds up well in recipes.

• Cut groats yield a toothsome, coarse texture and distinct nutty taste
• Longer cook time (typically 15–20 minutes) produces a dense, creamy porridge
• Better suited for savory dishes or hearty oatmeal bowls that keep their shape
• Minimal processing preserves whole-grain nutrients

How do I cook Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Steel Cut Oats for breakfast?

Stovetop cooking is traditional: simmer oats in water or milk until tender and creamy, stirring occasionally. Use a 4:1 liquid-to-oat ratio for a looser porridge or 3:1 for thicker texture; adjust cooking time slightly to reach the desired chew.

• Standard method: 1 cup oats + 4 cups water, simmer 15–20 minutes
• For creamier oats, substitute part water with milk or use a slow cooker/instant pot
• Flavor tips: cinnamon, fruit, nuts, nut butter, or a pinch of salt enhance taste
• Batch cooking: make a big pot, refrigerate, and reheat portions with added liquid

Can I use these oats in recipes other than oatmeal?

Yes—steel cut oats are versatile and work in both sweet and savory dishes. Their coarse texture makes them excellent for risotto-style grain dishes, hearty salads, and baked goods where a more substantial grain is desired.

• Use in savory porridge or oat risotto with vegetables and broth
• Add to soups or stuffings for extra fiber and bite
• Incorporate into baked breads or cookies after brief pre-cooking for tenderness
• Blend with milk and fruit for overnight oat variations (soak longer than rolled oats)

Who is this for: This product is aimed at home cooks and meal planners who want a nutritious, whole-grain breakfast or a hearty cooking grain that holds texture—ideal for people following gluten-free, vegan, or kosher diets, and for anyone who prefers a chewy, full-bodied oat over the softer rolled varieties.
