Ingredient Spotlight!

~ Oat Flour~

Oat flour is flour that is made from ground oats. It is a very nutritious whole-grain flour that is packed with fibre and protein.   It is also high in carbohydrates, iron, selenium, magnesium and potassium.

Due to its highly complex carbohydrates, it is said to be able to help with sustained energy levels.  Other purported health benefits include helping with cardiovascular health, cholesterol and managing diabetes.

NB: For those who are gluten intolerant or have Celiac disease, please ensure that your product is labelled ‘gluten-free.’  While oats are generally gluten-free, sometimes these products might be packaged in facilities that house gluten products.  Why not give this pancake a try?

To good health!
