my reciepe calls for rolled oats but I only have quick oats. Does it matter?
You can interchange rolled oats and quick oats with little change to texture in the recipe. You cannot substitute “instant” oats for ANYTHING and you can’t substitute steel-cut oats for rolled or quick oats because they will not get soft without a long cooking in liquid. Substitue away… if it’s for baby, you might want to just give it a taste-test before you serve it to ensure the texture is fine and soft enough for baby to handle without choking. Bon Appetit… or whatever you say to a baby when you give them oatmeal.
