How do you prepare oat bran?

[SoreArms]

I picked up some oat bran this week end. I have never had it but it looked very comparable to oat meal, it actually has a higher protein content, and it seemed like a good idea for a bit of variation (I've been eating steel cut oats twice a day fro the last 3 months or so).

I assume that all i need to do is pour some hot water and splenda and it should be good to go, right?

I also need some (healthy) ideas for adding flavor. How do you guys prepare oat bran?

I pretty much cook it the same way as oatmeal

i even mix 1/2 oatbran and half oatmeal
It's great stuff

I love it

Sometimes i will marinade a chicken breast in some spices and lemon juice then cover with egg white and roll in oatbran and it tastes kinda like breaded chicken

Thanks bud, I tried to hit you with K but I must "pass it around before giving it to BFA again".

I'll hit you later.

oatbran is awesome
most times i eat it alone or mixed like bfa
add some vanilla or keto maple syrup
nuts and seeds are good too
raspberries or blueberries are great high in anti o's and fiber
sometimes i add an egg to it and swirl it about
and definitely splenda

I added 1/3 cup to my protein shake this morning. That is going to be a great and quick way to get my carbs in the morining since I can't really do that with steel cut oats. It also ensures that I get carbs in the morning 'cause I sometimes did not have the time to sit and have a bowl of oats, now I can just chug them with my protein shake.
