    What is the difference between oat groats and rolled oats?  I think in the past I've gotten rolled oats, and used it for oatmeal, breads, cookies, etc.  Can I do the same with oat groats?

Thanks!

Oat groats are just the oat grains. They are very soft and can be rolled out into the oats you're used to seeing. If you have a DLX, you can get the roller attachment and make your own rolled oats for oatmeal and granola.

You can also mill the oat groats in any grain mill to use in all your recipes.

So, if the recipe calls for oat groats milled, can I just use milled rolled oats?

Thanks again for your help!

I have milled oats by themselves once in my Whisper Mill, but was later told that's not a great idea. It would be better to mill the rolled oats in a coffee grinder.
