KOMPAS ZDOROVJA oat bran is 100% bran with no added sugar or other ingredients, so it has a neutral taste and goes with almost any food.
Ways to use it:
- Hot dishes: add it to oat or other porridge while cooking — the bran swells and makes the texture thicker.
- Fermented milk products: stir it into yoghurt or kefir and let it stand for 5–10 minutes — the bran will swell a little and become softer.
- Smoothies: it blends well and hardly changes the taste of the drink.
- Baking: it can partly replace flour in recipes for pancakes, bread or muffins — increasing the proportion of fibre and making them more filling without extra sugar.
The only thing to avoid is eating bran dry and washing it down with a minimal amount of liquid. The fibre should swell in the dish itself or in the stomach with an adequate fluid intake; otherwise, the desired effect will not be achieved.
