Bob's Red Mill Protein Oats, 32 oz (907 g)

I eat this almost every morning. I like its taste, nutritional content, and the simplicity of the product (one ingredient, oats!). I wish it were available in a larger size.

I eat a lot of oats (typically store brand rolled oats) and decided to splurge on these protein oats because I wanted to see if they'd keep me fuller longer. I also liked the idea that they didn't contain protein powder. While they cook up fine and taste good, the amount of hulls I've found is very off-putting. After finding several in the first bowl, I decided to try and remove as many as possible before microwaving the second bowl. So, after adding the water, I looked for hulls floating on the surface and removed all the ones I could find (see photo). Unfortunately, I still found more while eating. I saw an article on your website (https://www.bobsredmill.com/articles/how-do-bobs-red-mill-protein-oats-compare-to-regular-oats) that said this variety of oats shed their hulls themselves, allowing this step of the production process to be skipped. Either this step shouldn't be skipped, or these aren't really the correct strain of oats. Either way, I'm disappointed in the quality control and don't think I'll purchase these again, unfortunately.

I love that this is simply oats that have more protein. They are very tasty. The problem is that the amount of husks that show up is off the charts. I’ve gone through a lot of oats in the last several years and RARELY encountered a husk. This oatmeal I find 1-5 in every bowl! I will finish what I have but will think twice before getting more.

I just found these in the store and enjoyed hem for breakfast this morning! I was looking for more information about using them in recipes. The general cooking instructions are not the same as regular Old Fashioned Oats. Can they be substituted one for one in other recipes like cookies?

This may be the first time I've ever felt the need to leave a food review. I love the regular oats from this brand and the gluten free is great also. However, these protein oats are terrible. The oats having almost a paper casing around them. I was literally picking papery textured pieces out of my teeth.

Nice way to make oats a little more filling! I like that there is nothing added to these oats to make them more protein dense, unlike some other brands.

I love using these for overnight oats or cooked (boil water, toss in oats and turn off heat. Cover and let sit until water is absorbed). They are a good base for a variety of combos (apple/raisin/walnut/cinnamon; mashed pumpkin/walnuts/chopped dates/pumpkin pie spice; dried blueberries/chia seed/hemp seed/maple sugar and many more).
