Oatmeal as Substitute for Breadcrumbs

By catgirl

Ingredients

• Instant or old-fashioned rolled oatmeal

Preparation

Step 1

Step 1: Select
Choose the right oats. Steel cut may be too rough and gritty for your recipe. Go for instant or old-fashioned rolled varieties.
Step 2: Pulse
Run the oats through a blender or a food processor until more finely processed. This step isn't required, but it does prevent large flakes from showing up in your loaf or balls.

Step 3: Measure
Note the amount of breadcrumbs called for in your recipe. Measure out this amount of pulsed, or nonpulsed, oatmeal.

Step 4: Stir In
Add to your recipe just as if you were adding breadcrumbs. If the recipe calls for soaking in milk first, do so.
