Oat Fiber 500 (3 LB) All-Natural, Gluten-Free, Zero-Carb Fiber Source for Low-Carb Baking

This is helping me live a low carb lifestyle. It helps make things seem like bread when added to almond flour. You can also make gravy with this. I love it.

First off the flavor is neutral. I take a tsp full of it in water as dietary fiber. Leave it sitting in water and just like regular flour will get gluey. I put it in, swirl it and down it not concerned with taste or consistency. It is a huge bag and looks just like flour but is not a flour replacement. If you look on youtube there are a lot of videos where you use anywhere from a Tbs to a 1/4 cup of these with lupine, or almond or coconut flours. I feel it is best to tweak an already created recipe until you get the hang of it, but very useful. Is a great sub for thickening things as well. And for those who don't know this could be as many carbs as can be, but also has the same amount of fiber so the net carbs are zero period end of story, stay in ketosis, no insulin spike at all. Even if you aren't diabetic or keto this is really good stuff and we all should look for ways to lower our A1C.

I use this mostly for my faux mash potatoes I make on keto. I cook down daikon (a naturally low carb root veggie that looks a lot like a white giant carrot) or radishes in water and then add a touch of the lowest carb real potato flakes (not too many so I keep carbs at bay-about 1/3 cup for 3 daikons or 2 lbs radishes) I can find and then I add this oat fiber (usually 1/2-1 cup to taste and to thicken) with some soft goat cheese or cream cheese, cream and butter and I get about 8-10 1/2 cup, 3-4 net carb mash potatoes and they are so much better then cauliflower mash! Taste SO CLOSE to real mashers! I love this brand of oat fiber! Cheap and great to use to keep my blood sugar at bay!!!!

Really helps cut down on carbs.

I just reordered this product. Very happy with it. Scientists say we should be getting 30g of fiber a day. How many apples is that? A bushel? It's very hard to get 30g in normal American food. It's easy to add the 'soluble' fiber to your diet with some Benefiber but harder to find this 'insoluble' type of fiber. Here is your answer. Sprinkle some on your other foods for a quick fiber boost. Add it to your baked goods. You shouldn't notice any taste at all. It just seems to be the simplest answer to an important factor in a healthy lifestyle. On the down side, it's a fine powder. Be careful if you pour it into a different container. Don't sneeze or it will be all over you and all over your kitchen. 🤧

I like how this product adds fiber to any recipe. It works great in gluten-free baking recipes. However, they need to offer a certified ORGANIC option. I'm aware that grains like oats are often contaminated with glyphosate. Farmers in northern U.S. and Canadian regions often spray their oats with glyphosate to speed the death of their plants, dry their seeds, and increase their profits. This product is made from the outer husk of the oat, so it is at highest risk of being contaminated with glyphosate.

Made only of the fibrous husk of the oat kernel, oat fiber contains none of the proteins or carbs in actual oats, however it's probably not ok for people with celiac or other serious gluten sensitivities. I bought this to use with a low carb "rustic" bread recipe and it's the best I've found. If you google "rustic farmer bread" and keto you'll find a recipe which uses potato fiber (the author is European and potato fiber is more commonly used there, but oat fiber works beautifully). It's a good value, I don't really make bread all that much, but when I want a low carb sandwich this recipe with this product really can't be beat!

I haven’t used this yet, but I did open the bag and transfer it into a container. It was very powdery, but that’s the nature of the product and if one is careful there isn’t an extreme amount of oat fiber going all over the kitchen. I put it in a plastic bucket I had leftover from 10 lbs of fondant. The product itself is a very, very fine powder ( which is good! ), and looks very similar to unbleached all purpose flour in color. It’s a tad lighter maybe. I did taste just a tiny bit, and it was very neutral in flavor which is also good! Since I haven’t used it in my baking yet, I can’t say how any final results will be, but it seems very similar to the other very good quality brand sold here, so I think it’ll work just fine.
