Just Natural Organic Spelt Flakes 350g

Just Natural Organic Spelt Flakes are a delicious, ancient-grain alternative to standard rolled oats. Created by gently rolling and flattening whole organic spelt kernels, these flakes retain the natural goodness of the grain while offering a slightly nuttier, more complex flavour profile.

Spelt is an ancient relative of modern wheat, and its flakes are prized for their satisfying, slightly chewy texture. They are an excellent choice for a hearty morning porridge, but their unique flavour also makes them a popular addition to home-baked goods, granola, and muesli mixes.

Preparation Tips

Spelt flakes have a slightly firmer texture than quick-cook oats, which allows them to hold their own during cooking.

• Creamy Porridge: Combine 50g of spelt flakes with 200–250ml of water or your favourite milk in a saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally. The flakes will soften while retaining a pleasant, chewy "bite."

• Overnight Oats: For a softer texture, stir the flakes into your choice of milk or yogurt and leave them in the fridge overnight. They will absorb the liquid and be ready to eat in the morning without any cooking required.

• Baking Boost: Substitute half the oats in your favourite flapjack or granola recipe with spelt flakes for an earthier, more robust flavour. They also work wonderfully as a crunchy topping for fruit crumbles.
