Oatbran (or oat bran) is the outer part of the oatgrain. It contains a soluble fibre (beta-glucan) and when included as part of a healthy diet can help reduce the levels of LDL cholesterol. So if you aim to eat 3g of beta glucan or soluble fibre from oats a day (around 60g of oat bran a day) you will help lower your cholesterol levels if eaten as part of an overall healthy diet. Oat bran can be easily consumed as a porridge or muffins. Both can be delicious. No one would guess you were eating for health.
Ingredients
Just pure Mornflake oatbran.

Pastryless flan - Tue 6th Jul 2010
I made a pastryless flan with oatbran yesterday and it turned out gr8.
4 eggs
250 g longley farm cottage cheese
10 grammes oatbran
15 grammes oats
large pinch black pepper
40 grammes lighter mature cheese grated
60 grammes lean bacon chopped up into little tiny pieces
3 big mushrooms chopped up
1 large onion chopped up
Put everything into a bowl and mix up really well. Pour into a large quiche dish, or souffle dish or a loaf tin or even a cake tin - greased and/or lined if you want, cook at 180 degrees (fan) or 190 degrees (non-fan) for about 1 hour until set and nicely browned.
Turn out carefully on a plate, or leave to cool a bit before doing so. When cold, cut up into 8 pieces, cover and refrigerate. Absolutely scrumptious. No idea how to work out the nutritional facts but it's high protein, lowish carbs and probably medium fat. You can leave the mature cheese out if you like, Longley farm's cottage cheese is so good. Replace bacon with other veggies or fish or sausage, whatever you like. The oats really make this really gorgeous. Much better than adding flour to it.

Oatbran Porridge - Wed 30th Mar 2011
I've just been told that my cholesterol is a bit high so I'm hitting on this oatbran porridge for breakfast as a new regime. This morning was 3 dessert spoons of oatbran with 1 dsp of normal oats. Add cold water to cover and microwave for 30 seconds, and stir, then another 30 seconds and stir etc until it is at the consistency I like my porridge to be. Add a little Xylitol sweetener to taste and a splash of almond milk if I feel like I need it to be a little more sloppy. The mix of oatbran and oats gives porridge a great texture and of course you can use any sweeteners or toppings you fancy. Delicious.
