Shredded Oats
Shredded Oats are made by flattening and steaming them rather than cutting them with a steel blade. As a result they require less cooking time. They will cook in 5-7 minutes on the hob and are not recommended for microwave cooking.
Our shredded oats are whole-grain with an 18-month shelf life. They are cream to golden brown in colour and have a full oaty flavour and aroma.
They are suitable for use in applications such as bars, hot breakfast cereals, bakery, cookie mixes and product toppings.

In cereal
Shredded Oats can provide a perfect start to the day or a quick snack by meeting individual preferences and tastes. Oats naturally contain a wealth of important nutrients including high fibre and complex carbohydrates which results in a slow release of sugar into the blood providing a sustained energy supply to the body.
