How to Use
Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Oat Flour can substitute for wheat flour in many quick bread and pancake recipes; combining it with a small amount of tapioca or potato starch gives lighter results. In yeast breads, blend it with bread flour for proper structure and rise. Store the bag sealed and refrigerate or freeze it after opening, since whole grain flours contain natural oils that can turn stale over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Oat Flour contain allergens?
This oat flour is certified gluten free and produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility using pure whole oat groats, with no wheat cross-contamination expected. It contains no dairy, soy, or tree nuts as formulated, but anyone with an oat sensitivity or celiac disease should still check the current printed label before eating.
How should I store oat flour after opening?
Keep Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Oat Flour in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Because it contains natural oat oils that can turn stale, refrigerating or freezing the flour after opening extends its freshness noticeably, especially if your kitchen tends to run warm.
Can oat flour replace wheat flour in a recipe?
Oat flour can substitute for wheat flour in many quick breads, muffins, pancakes, and cookies, though the texture will differ somewhat from the original. For yeast breads, it is usually blended with other flours since it lacks the gluten structure needed for a strong rise. Recipes written for oat flour give the most consistent results.
Where is this oat flour made, and what sizes are available?
Bob's Red Mill stone-grinds this whole grain oat flour at its Milwaukie, Oregon facility. It is packaged in an 18 oz bag as a Single unit, with a Pack of 3 available for households baking with it on a regular basis.
I buy Bob’s red mill gluten-free flour in bulk. I have tried all of the gluten-free flowers and I have settled on Bob’s red mill as the very best. Everything cooks perfectly. I have no problems I make everything from scratch. I gluten-free bake almost every day. I use Bob’s Redmill for tortillas, pancakes, bagels, cookies, muffins, English muffins, waffles literally anything bread. If I’m using Bob’s Redmill, I know I’m not gonna have an issue.
I bought this because I’m allergic to rice and wheat. My daughter has been making cinnamon rolls with it and they are very delicious. Highly recommend.

This really surprised me. I usually hate gluten-free baking, but I genuinely enjoyed this. The taste and texture turned out great, and it mixes easily with good mixability. It really is a 1-1 substitute, though I noticed the batter benefits from a short rest and a pinch more moisture to recipes for the better rise and overall results. There’s a very slight grainy texture, but it’s minimal and didn’t bother me. Overall, it’s solid value for money and one of the better gluten-free flours I’ve tried. Pricy but cheaper here than most GF flours elsewhere, so take that as you will.
Love stocking up with these!
This bread always comes out great. I stuff it, so it’s a bit tricky to roll out and form it if you make a loaf stuffed like I do. Flavor is good. Texture is somewhat like a biscuit, not as airy as bread with gluten, but still good.
This is excellent GF flour. First we made a chocolate chocolate chip banana bread, then we tried sugar cookies (shown in photo). The secret to good GF baking is to follow recipes that use the exact flour you are using. Of course you can experiment and try different flours but if you want things to be fool proof when you’re bringing something to a party or hosting- it’s the safest bet. I don’t taste the blend of flours (rice, potato, tapioca?) when I bake with this in a good way; I just taste the recipe.
Great gluten flour! I can bake and even make pancakes. Add an egg, banana, vanilla, and cinnamon and the best gluten free pancakes. Great value and great taste!
While I often use this mix to make a loaf of bread, I also use it to make Gluten Free cinnamon rolls and they are absolute perfection. I use this mix in my bread maker every time with no issues. I would highly recommend this mix.
I tried my own gluten free ingredients -rice flour and psyllium husk powder & gluten free yeast. Fair. But this altogether mix is great Big fluffy result from the bread machine. 2hours 30 min to do the rising & baking. Just the adding 4 eggs-3whites and 1 full egg seems so much. But all of a sudden no one cares about the price of eggs…
I love this mix and buying this four pack is the best deal. Baking and eating GF can be a challenge and expensive but this makes life easier. I change the recipe to three whole eggs when I bake.
I feel like I’m eating real bread! Aaaaand I don’t have to toast it to be edible! Almost all gf breads I’ve had had to be toasted to be edible. Not this! I am sooooo excited!!!
This is the best bread mix I have found so far!!! I followed the directions and the bread was fluffy. It tasted like REAL homemade bread and it is gluten free!!!! The directions were easy for the most part. The only unsure part is it says to put the batter into a preparded loaf pan, but is not completely clear as to what to prepare it with. I used melted butter inside the pan and brushed butter onto the bread before rising. It didn't stick at all. The smell is amazing!! Recommend for anyone looking for a good gluten free bread!!!.
I decided to try this brand for a gluten free flour. I made German Pancakes with them (1:1 ration) and they were AMAZING!!! couldn't even tell a difference! So happy I found this product! I previously used Almond flour in banana bread for a gluten free option. And I did NOT like it 😵 . So I'm very happy I have this to use and keep baking with this great gluten free 1:1 ration flour option!
I found this flour from Butternut Bakery on line. She really does her research for baked goods. She highly recommended this flour for bread and pastries and it never disappoints. It is so much better than 1 to 1 flour for bread. Even from just mixing you can tell it's behaving more like bread flour. The bread and pastries are light and fluffy and taste great! Thank you, Bob's red mill!
We got a 1-1/2lb bread machine last year for super cheap on Amazon. So far we were only able to make "bricks" using gluten free (GF) recipes that came with the machine. After receiving Bob's mix the results were exceptional. The bread is substantial yet has enough moisture to be soft and easy to eat. Unlike some store bought GF breads, this bread actually feels like it's healthy. I think we got lucky with the bake settings though.Intuitively, instead of using the GF setting on the machine, we used the wholewheat setting set to "dark". However, it was almost a failure! At first, I followed the machine instructions to add liquids first then the flour. But after the kneading cycle stopped, that there was still flour on top. To fix this I shut off the machine and stirred the contents by hand and restarted the machine. That did the trick! I was a little worried that the bread was going to rise too high for the machine, but it was perfect. Perhaps this would work better in a 2lb machine that could pull all the ingredients under the mixing paddle. Next time I'll make sure to premix the ingredients a litte.The only thing I don't like about this product is the price, but that's the case with everything these days. If it was available in a bigger box of say 12 bags I would probably buy it if the savings would justify it. Overall I'm happy to find this easy way to make good GF bread and am looking forward to the next loaf!
Bob’s Red Mills One to one (Blue Bag) flour is my preferred gluten free flour for recipes that call for eggs especially. I have used it for all kinds of recipes, just regular recipes that I just happen to make gluten free and most of the time they turn out great. I have made various cakes, batters, sauces, different types of desserts with this flour and it has been well received by both those who normally eat gluten free and those with regular diets. Actually I hosted an event awhile back where I labeled it gluten free and I had people asking me where my ‘usual’ cake was, and I was like, um, that’s how I always make it. The one person has been eating it that way for years and apparently she’s never noticed it was gluten free.
Works great for our gluten free needs! Ended up buying the 4 pack to save a little more money. We have baked with another popular measure for measure brand and this one works just as well. It's non-gmo certified which is something I look for. We've made corn bread, banana bread, cakes, cookies and other baked items. Also works well for batter frying fish. The 1:1 ratio is pretty close. I've had to only add a smidge of liquid to recipes usually. And I like the velcro closure on the bag.
I’ve been experimenting with gluten free bread recipes and struggled each time with the lack of “rise” with the bread. My loafs always came up short in height, and nothing I tried worked. I decided to try this brand/blend and this was the easiest, tastiest, and most risen gf bread I’ve baked so far! I will continue to use this product!
5 Stars!! I have been looking for GF flour for nearly 2 years so that I can make Indian style breads, and I have tried several with less than satisfactory results. I got Bob's Red Mill after reading reviews but decided to get a small pack to first try it out. AND the results were amazing!! Not only was I able to knead the dough with regular water, I was able to roll it out without much trouble. I also made stuffed potato parathas and I was able to make it in the pan without it breaking apart. In fact it puffed up and got cooked on both sides really well. Best of all the taste was amazing as well!! Loved it! So happy I found something for myself since I have been on a GF diet for the past 2 years due to health reasons and I have been missing the chapatis and parathas most of all. Highly recommended!! 👍 👍
After purchasing every pre-made gluten free bread available and being disappointed time and time again, I tried this mix.I have used Bob's flour and baking products in the past and I trust the brand so it was worth trying.The mix is easy to use. Very user friendly, for beginners for sure. It only takes a few hours and you have this amazing delicious loaf of home made gluten free bread! It has perfect density, doesn't fall apart and I can bake a decent size loaf good for sandwiches.It lacks the gritty texture that is so often prevalent in gluten free products and it tastes like regular bread. This is an amazing product and I highly recommend it!
I’ve made this mix once so far and made it exactly as the recipe called. As it calls, is a little dense, it’s not my husband’s fav but I liked it… I toast it before eating; so that helps with the density. As for flavor, it’s kind of bland like a white bread.In the reviews others have shared how they have tweaked the recipe; I’m trying those next. I’d buy again.
