Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about five to seven minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats reach your desired consistency. You can also cook them in the microwave. For baked goods, they can be incorporated into muffins, cookies, and bread recipes to add texture and substance. They can also be used as a binder in vegetarian patties.

Store any unused portion in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. This will help maintain their freshness and prevent them from absorbing moisture or odors from the surrounding environment. Proper storage ensures the oats remain suitable for future use.
