Can I add this powder to hot foods like soup or oatmeal, or bake with it?

Yes, the powder format is versatile and can be stirred into many soft foods, including hot porridge, soups, or stews. It can also be incorporated into baked dishes like breads, muffins, or pancakes. When baking, keep in mind that psyllium is a powerful hydrocolloid—it absorbs a significant amount of liquid. You may need to slightly increase the liquid content (water, milk, or plant-based milk) in your recipe to compensate and achieve the desired dough or batter consistency. The wheat bran will add a subtle, nutty texture. Start by replacing a small portion of the flour in a recipe with this blend to see how it affects the final product. Regardless of how you use it, ensure you drink water with or after your meal, as the fiber continues to absorb liquid internally.
