Notes
A word on oat flour:When making oat flour, I highly recommend using rolled oats/old fashioned oats unless quick oats is specifically called for. Rolled oats create a thicker texture and more of a bind than quick oats do. Also, you want to ensure your oats are pulsed to a flour consistency so use a high quality blender or food processor. My Ninja pulsed them well but the Nutri Bullet did an excellent job after only a few seconds. Measure the oats AFTER they’ve been pulsed!
