6 Ways To Use Oats in Gluten-Free Bakes

Oats in Baking

Oats are a wonderful gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in baking. They give flavour, moisture, and a nice chewy finish to bakes.

Oats Flakes or Oat Flour?

Whole oats are perfect for cookies, bars, and garnishes, while finely ground oats (aka oat flour) work well in cakes, pies, and muffins.
