Tips
Great ideas for purchasing, storing, and consuming oats.
- When you’re at the grocery store, look for oats that are in a sealed container or bag. This will keep them fresh longer.
- Buy oats in bulk. Oats will keep for up to a year if stored properly—but that doesn’t mean you should store them in your pantry. Instead, store them in an airtight container in a cool and dry place outside of direct sunlight such. The refrigerator of freezer works perfectly.
- Store rolled oats for up to 6 months at room temperature or 2 years in the freezer (if you like oatmeal ice cream). You can also keep steel-cut oats for up to 6 months at room temperature or 2 years in the freezer.
- Cook your oats on the stove-top or microwave according to package directions—then add anything from fruit (fresh or dried) to nuts and seeds for extra flavor and texture.
