RECIPE SCIENCE
How much oatmeal will raw oats make?
One cup of steel cut oats yields about three cups of cooked oatmeal. A typical serving size is ⅓ to ½ cup dried oats, or about 1 to 1 ½ cups cooked. The reason for its substantial expansion is that oats contain about 40 to 60% starch (amylose and amylopectin). As the starches are heated and absorb water, the granules swell and thicken due to gelatinization.
