Recipe Directions
- 1. OPTIONAL TO SOFTEN: The night before, throw the water, raisins and then oats into your blender. Let them sit overnight.
- 2. In the morning, start your blender (and if you didn't soak the night before, throw the water, raisins and then the oats into your blender). While the water and oats are blending, chop the apple and then add it to the blender, too.
- 3. Continue blending until the oatmeal is a nice, smooth texture.
- 4. Eat! I love to top this oatmeal with more whole raisins and a sprinkle of cinnamon. This recipe makes for a very filling breakfast.
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The Rawtarian In the morning, my breakfast is almost always either fresh fruit, a green smoothie, or--my favourite--quick, blended oatmeal.
This recipe does take a bit of preparation because it should be soaked overnight, but, with only a few ingredients, it's so easy! (PS: You can do it without soaking but it won't be as smooth.)
Of course, like any good oatmeal, top this recipe with fruit or whatever suits your fancy!
PS: It has recently come to my attention that eating truly uncooked oats is not safe. Thus, I have modified this recipe to use quick rolled oats, which have been cooked but are way better for your digestive system. Truly raw (uncooked) oats are very tough on the digestive system and should not be eaten because of their high amount of phytic acid.

I am pretty confused about what oats to use here. I used to make this with steel cut oats and soak in fridge in alot of water. I am horrified to learn that was not good. I wanted to use that recipe again for a change in my breakfast. Which oat product can I use in a smoothie or overnight oat soaking situation? Is there any option, or are oats a no no unless you cook them on the stove or microwave the normal way when making oatmeal?

Can we use quick cooking oats even though we are not heating them? What would be the benefit or difference between using steel cut oats and rolled oats?

Hi Linoya!
Eating uncooked oats is not good for you. They are somewhat toxic when raw so do stay away from eating them uncooked.
If you are going to eat oats, please cook them. :)

Do you just leave the oats on the counter?

Soaked oats are the same as cooked: http://claireobeid.com/why-you-should-never-eat-raw-oats/

The texture is gummy for the oatmeal. I didn't soak the night before and I used quickoats.

Raw oatmeal recipe
Hi!
First of all, thank youfor your recipes, they're great (especially the banana cream pie, even non-raw-foodists LOVED it!)
Sencond, I see a lot of recipes with oats. I've been told, that oats are not good in a raw food diet.. But sometimes I really want to eat an oatmeal, and I don't have raw oats, only Quaker.. Do you think, as a raw-foodist who probably know more than Ido, that it's okay once in a while, or should I try to not eat it at all?

That's for sure, but instant oats are healthy at all?

They are pre-cooked, I believe.

Raw oatmeal recipe
The taste was great but it is just too gummy of a texture for me. I might try not soaking it overnight and see if that is better.

Hi Jessica! Thanks for your review. To be honest, I am not crazy about this recipe anymore either. I think it needs some tweaking!!

This recipe is fine. Just wasn't my thing I guess. Soaked the oats overnight so it was creamy. Flavor was good. I think I struggled with it being cold. Wonder if next time I might warm it up just a little and may like it even better. Also, I'm trying to lose weight so the serving size for me would have to be one serving.

I am a bit tortured about this recipe myself. It's really gummy.

I love this app. This one is the best so far. However I have a question a out this recipe. The serving size have 3 portions, the calories per serving are 210, so it will be a total of 630 calories. I don't think the ingredients are too high in calories. I think I am reading this wrong. Do I need to multiply the portions by the total of calories, or the calories are the total calories for the recipe, including all the ingredients, and the serving size is just a guide and doesn't affects the serving size?
Thank you and this app is awesome!

Hi Sally,
I'm happy that you're enjoying the app!
I agree that this one is a confusing one, since it sounds like there's not a lot there in the recipe, but the calories are quite high per serving.
A 1/4 cup of dry steel cut oats is 150 calories, according to the tub of steel cut oats that's sitting in my kitchen. Thus, this recipe in full (1 1/4 cup steel cut oats etc) is at least 750+ calories.
Does this help?

Made this and loved it! I think I'll skip the blending next time as it's very smooth.

Could there be a typo on the ingredients? I was preparing to soak my oats tonight to try this for tomorrow and I noticed the cooking directions on my steel-cut oats are 1 cup oats to 4 cups water for 4 servings. Should the ingredients be 1/4 cup oats instead of 1 1/4 cup for 1 serving? Thanks.

Gonna try this for tomorrow's breakfast but I did notice EileenM that on the top of this recipe, it states this is three servings. If you want just one serving, you change modify it now. ;-)
