Oat Groats Porridge
I particularly like porridge made from oat groats since these are the least processed of all the oat gains. They truly are a wholefood. The end result can be just as creamy and delicious as other oat grains, however, it is far more healthy.However, oats contain phytic acid which inhibits the absorption of essential minerals, particularly calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc. Therefore, please remember to soak the oat groats as described in the article on soaking nuts, grains and legumes, which you can find here
