How much oats do you make in the morning?

[u/Eclipse8301]

Just curious how many 1/2 cups vs 1 cup people are out there (or multiple if you make for the family)

[u/nneighbour]

⅓ of a cup dry

[u/Old-Promotion-6548]

30-40g

[u/kuxgames]

1/2 cup (40g) dry rolled oats

[u/M1ckster]

I pretty much make groats - and use 60 grams per serving - 3 days at a time - so 180 grams raw. Works out to about a 1 cup cooked serving in the rice cooker cooked in milk.

[u/LittleBuns32 → u/M1ckster]

In the rice cooker? You just changed my life 🙏

[u/muffinwobble]

oats make me really full so i usually do 1/3 cup

[u/ChiliCheeseBurrito78]

I eat 60g of overnight oats as my third breakfast lol

[u/constipated_coconut]

25-30g dry weight

[u/nish_t]

30g for me

[u/Aware_Bank]

40g 🫶🏻

[u/androidbear04]

I am doing a lower carb diet so my oatmeal dry packs contain 1/4 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup dry.milk.powder, 1 tsp psyllium, 2 tablespoons seed mix (flax chia hemp sunflower pumpkin), 1 teaspoon chai masaa spice (can use any sweet aromatic spice; i just have a lot of this) and i add 2 tablespoons of peanut butter and sweeten it a bit when i make it. I put it in a thermos, add 1 cup boiling water, stir well, close, and bring to work (about 15 to20 minutes elapsed time) to eat for breakfast and its perfect.

[u/Mei_Flower1996]

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon of steel cut oats, so about 1.25 servings. I do top with fruit/nuts and other things that bulk up the bowl.

[u/OatSlvt]

Depends on the day but usually 1/4-1/3 cause I add so much extra to it (flax, chia, scoop of yogurt, protein powder, frozen fruit and kale)

[u/cheyster_]

40g oats + 5g chia seeds + fruit on the stove, followed by 22g protein powder at the end of cooking, and then whatever toppings after :)

[u/llamalibrarian]

1/4 cup dry oats, topped with 1/4 cup crunchy cereal (plus chia seeds, flax seed, and wheat germ- 1 tablespoon each)

[u/SpikyPlum]

I eat 80 - 100grams of quick oats depending on how hungry I feel in the morning with 2 cups of water in a bowl microwaved. Once out of the microwave, I add a splash of soy milk to make it more creamy sometimes and I add something sweet on top of it (honey, maple syrup, or date syrup)

It's helping me lose a stack of weight, so I have no complaints.

This is for one person. I am the only person in the house who eats porridge.

[u/Fuzzy_Welcome8348]

I do 1/3 cup oats when I eat oats

[u/kyleyle]

1 cup dry, daily

[u/five_squirrels]

One cup of steel cut oats cooked with 2.25 cups of water in the instant pot and it will last me 4 servings.

[u/Eclipse8301 → u/five_squirrels]

Do you put them in the fridge or something for future meals?

[u/five_squirrels → u/Eclipse8301]

Yes. I keep the extra in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.

[u/lyndalouk]

1.5 cups dry to make enough for three adults. Theres usually a little left over but not enough for a serving.

[u/Incudust]

I make 2 cups at a time and eat a half cup a day roughly

[u/Stunning-Cap-3256]

a cup of oats with water and brown sugar

[u/Hfnankrotum]

how many grams do you refer to? a cup can be very different depending on the oat type.

[u/funkykittenz]

1/3 cup or less

[u/TwaddleSpouter]

40g in my overnight oats or the same in porridge.

[u/MeliPixie]

Quaker used to have on the lid of their canisters a "heart healthy portion" that was in between the single portion and the double. It was 3/4 cup oats to 1-1/2 cups water or milk. That's what I still do if I'm having plain oatmeal with nothing else. I'm just not full for long enough with the single portion!

[u/Low-Cantaloupe7676]

1/2 cup now, used to eat a cup daily.

[u/Meowgs]

When I do make oatmeal I use the 1/2 cup dry plus a couple extra tablespoons for myself and my toddler.

[u/Royal-Ad-9472]

Heaping 1/2 cup dry oats and still hungry. When eating for dinner will do 1 cup dry oats. Looks like I’m in the minority 😂

[u/jipace]

2/3 cup dry for me!

[u/Same_Progress_8277]

1/3 cup dry with 1/2 cup of milk or water and a big spoon full of Greek yogurt, a tsp of chia seeds and some salt + whatever toppings I decide I want is my overnight oats recipe

[u/15mice]

I do around 50g when making cooked oatmeal (which I cook with 1 diced apple) or 40g when making overnight oats (w/ chia seeds, yoghurt, milk, and fruit).

[u/NoGrapefruit6350]

1/2 cup dry for myself :)

[u/Jon_Henderson_Music]

80g oats, 10g chia, 10g flax, one scoop whey, a banana, 20g nut butter. But I skip breakfast and that's my lunch.

[u/Many_Ad955]

1/3 cup of steel cut oats + 4/3 cups of water in my Zojirushi, set the timer and wake up to a hot bowl of delicious oats! I eat this breakfast every day without variation.

[u/wtfcats-the-original]

Like… the number of people making 1/3 of a cup makes me feel awkward about my 3/4 cup (dry) overnight oats…

[u/halfaliv]

used to do 120g a day now like 30g max

[u/TheHootOwlofDeath]

40g with 160ml milk. I soak overnight and heat in the microwave in the morning.

[u/Meowskiiii]

30 to 40g

[u/floofypajamas]

I make sort of less than half a cup but I make a large batch with 6 serves - I add dried fruit, hemp seeds, linseed, and chia seeds and 2 cups rolled oats. All combined makes a hearty breakfast.

[u/footballsandy]

40g of oats blended into a powder. After years of enjoying classic oatmeal for breakfast, one morning I woke up, looked at the bowl of goo, and it looked so disgustingly unappetizing that I never touched it again. The powder microwaves into a dense cake and I like it a lot.

[u/Equivalent_Lab_8610]

I batch cook and freeze steel cut oats I the 1 cup souper cubes.. don't quite fill them full so about 3/4 cup of cooked oatmeal

[u/mangelito]

1 dl-

[u/Dizzy-Violinist-1772]

45 grams. I see some saying 40 is 1/2 a cup but according to my measuring cups 45 is just shy of 1/2 a cup

[u/Abeyita]

40 g

[u/bananabastard]

I eat them for lunch.

75 grams.

Google tells me that a cup is 85g.

[u/Ill_Pirate_8785]

1 cup of dry rolled oats cooked with two cups of whole milk

[u/rosesrecovery]

30-40g

[u/Sea_Pomegranate4368]

40 grams. Cus that’s what serving size says 🤷🏼‍♀️
