Eden Organic Oat Flakes (454g)
Eden Organic Oat Flakes are premium quality, 100% whole grain oats (Avena sativa) grown on family farms in Saskatchewan, Canada. These oats undergo a unique traditional process—they are steamed, gas fire-roasted (flame-roasted), and rolled—to create a rich, nutty flavor and a texture that is ready in just 3-5 minutes.
Unlike standard rolled oats, Eden's flame-roasting process enhances the natural sweetness and digestibility of the grain. They are a versatile addition to any Nigerian pantry, perfect for a quick heart-healthy breakfast, baking, or even as a nutritious alternative for making 'oat swallow'.
