Tip #1
Old-fashioned rolled oats are made by steaming and then flattening into flakes by rolling. They are re-rolled to make quick-cooking oats. Old-fashioned and quick-cooking oats can generally be used interchangeably in recipes. Old-fashioned oats will add more texture, but they both add moistness and a nutty flavor to breads.
