How do I make oats palatable? I've been trying to choke them down with milk, but their texture gives me a headache and the constant chewing makes me feel sick.
Is there anything I can do to my oats to make them edible?

Buy oats flour and mix it with something
Make pancakes.

Pancakes with oat flour, or pancakes with oats inside them?
Are pancakes good even though they'll have quite a bit of sugar in them?
>>36351602
1/4 cup steel cut oats
1/4 cup cottage cheese
1 egg
Dash of vanilla and baking powder
Blend in Nutribullet, fry like a pancake. I make 3x at a time, and keep it in the refrigerator. So at the most, the mix is 48 hours old.
I use sugar free syrup.
just eat it you fucking bitch.

I wanted to try eating no dairy so i came with something for oats, it's probably been thought of before but here it is
>2-3 bananas in a bowl
>mash the bananas
>add oats
>mix
>add peanut butter
>mix
It's surprisingly good. No cooking at all.

>>36351550
>constant chewing
When I soak them with milk I'm practically drinking them down, is this bad?
>>36353617
I dunno, but that's what I tried.
>>36351550
If you don't like the texture try steel cut oats. If you still don't like those find something else
>>36353831
There's your problem you dolt.
Cook that shit up niger
>>36354166
Cook how? I thought it was just (bowl + oats + milk) + squats = gains
>>36353773

>>36351984
Oats dry? Like those mason jar overnight oats recipes you see on pinterest?
I bought a thing of steel cut oats a few days ago. I've been experimenting to try and make them taste good.
>Start boiling 1/2 cup oats in the stove
>About a minute after they start cooking, dump in 1 cup of frozen mixed fruit (I use a berry blend)
>Stir and cook until it's ready
>Mix some whey powder in for additional flavour/protein
Tastes pretty good to me.

2 parts water
Put in a sauce pan over high heat till it boils then turn the heat down to low. Stir occasionally.
Then throw in fruit or protein powder if you want.

What's so good about oats anyway?
Besides helping you poop
Can someone explain the health benefits of eating oats? I am starting the journey to fitness.
>>36355026
Low fat, pretty low calorie for how much of it you can stuff in your face, it's a whole grain so you got dat fiber, it's got some protein in it already. Overall a good choice considering it can help you stay fuller for a bowl's worth of the stuff.
>>36355026
Cheap carb source high in fiber without fructose
>>36355052
>>36355042
I can dig it. I keep hearing low carb diets are better for fitness.
>>36355174
It tends to be the easiest route because many times, it's the added sugar that more often than not exceeds the usual carb intake recommended by the DGC
>>36355174
By shills and ketards who don't fucking workout
If you want to get strong, you NEED carbs. Carbs are what your body uses to make glycogen. A low carb diet results in greatly diminished endurance and thus shitty workouts.

>A low carb diet results in greatly diminished endurance and thus shitty workouts
This is wrong though. High endurance athletes (talking ultramarathoners) go into ketosis during their run. You just gotta get through the wall, ie when your body transfers to using fats as energy
>>36355185
Then my journey begins!
>>36355207
They go into ketosis during their run because even with a normal diet the body can only store so much energy. When you're running dozens of miles, you WILL eventually run completely out of glycogen.
But while you can jog under ketosis, you can't do real strength training with ketosis. Your muscles cannot put out anywhere near their maximal power when you don't have readily accessible glucose.
Keto dieting is great for shedding weight. You lose weight even if you're not at a deficit just from losing water weight. This is ideal if you're a bodybuilder getting ready for competition or a pro fighter getting ready for weight in. But if you're actually trying to get stronger, and not just lose weight, you must have carbs. I'm not saying 80/10/10 macrosplit like some retards suggest, but don't swear off starch forever just because someone told you that's what a caveman did; that ain't even true.
>>36351550
Stop eating your oats dry. You are supposed to heat them up with water, you walking meme.
>>36351550
You don't eat them raw you retard.
>>36355271
>>36355478
Well that's why I made the fucking thread
>>36351550
>1 part oats
3 parts water
>bring water to boil
>add some salt maybe one pinch
>add oats to waters
t>urn down heat to low and let that shit simmer for ~15mins. Stirin is optional.
>add cacao and fruit of choice (i either use a banana or frozen berries)
>your oatmeal is now ready.
i usually take a shower while that shit is simmering
>>36354888
Nah, the container doesn't really matter, you make it and eat it straight away. I do use oat flour or whatever though.
>>36351550
Make "Havregrynskugler". It's the fucking best. If not, make "Havregrod".
Breakfast of champions op
i have oats every morning, i just throw them raw into the blender, blend them into dust, and then add other ingredients.
Dont need to eat shitty porridge and still get the benefits.
>>36351550
What are oats even good for? Serious question. Seems like a huge waste of macros to me.
>>36357661
>cheap
>filling
>complex carbs
>some protein
>fiber
>versatile
First off dont buy the goddamn giant steel cut oats. Get the 1 minute ones.
>>36357704
or just have a bowl of fruit loops instead
>>36351550
Make porridge you dipshit. Bit of honey and you're good to go.
call the cops I don't give a fuck
>>36357661
Back when I used to eat bread in the morning and at work I would have horrible cramps and farts. Then when I had to shit only a tiny rockhard piece of poop came out. I switched to oats and it just about stopped happening, only when I am stressed out do my intestines still fill with air.. It is quite annoying
>>36357692
Not convinced at all. Also
>Complex carbs
Literally worthless.
this nigger has literally never made oatmeal before
>>36357763
Then dicks is probably more your thing.
>>36357776
So you don't really know why you are eating oats, right? You just did it because /fit/ told you to. You guys are retarded.
>boil 1 cup water
>add 1/2 cup oats
>add handful of raisins
>boil 1 minute, stir well
OPTIONAL:
>add diced banana (highly recommended)
>add handful of blueberries
>sprinkle in cinnamon
Judging by a lot of the replies here I wonder how many of you are DYEC's (Do You Even Cook)?
Plain oats do suck, I eat them everyday but haven't had plain oats in about 3 years. My breakfast is basically a shake consisting of:
>cooked oats
>water
>1-2 scoop whey
>raw egg
>frozen fruits
tastes great
>>36357908
I gave you a bunch of reasons on the other post you enormous faggot.
