How To Make Oat Flour
Oat flour is the simplest flour to make at home, using whole rolled oats (old-fashioned oats) and your high-speed blender or food processor.
2 cups of whole rolled oats equal about a cup of oat flour, or maybe a bit more, depending on how finely you grind it.
You may have to stop your machine and move the flour around with a spoon.
Process for at least 1 minute. You want your flour to be as finely and uniformly ground as possible.
Freshly grated cheese from a block will melt the best because pre-grated cheese is coated in preservatives that interfere with the natural melting capability of cheese.
4 servings (12 fritters)
Ingredients:
- 1 medium yellow summer squash, crookneck, or zucchini, shredded
- 1 large carrot, shredded
- 1 large egg, room temp
- 1 cup fresh or frozen green peas (thawed)
- 1/2 cup freshly shredded cheese, like mozzarella, cheddar, or Mexican blend
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- sea salt and ground pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 2 Tbsps avocado oil or olive oil for frying
Instructions:
Place the shredded zucchini and carrot in a colander. Season with a generous pinch of salt and allow the veggies to eliminate the excess moisture.
After 10 minutes, use your hands to squeeze out the liquid from the veggies, then place into a medium bowl.
Add in the egg, peas, cheese, seasonings, and oat flour.
Stir to combine really well and create a thick batter.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan or skillet, over medium heat.
Add a spoonful of the veggie batter, making sure you leave some space in between. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining oil and batter.
Serve hot with plain Greek yogurt, no-sugar added ketchup, or homemade dip of choice such as our phenomenal Tzatziki sauce.
Enjoy!
