Pulled Oat Recipes

Pulled oat recipes bring plant protein to weeknight dinners – our chefs pick the ingredients, delivered to your door.


Pulled oats are a plant protein made from oats and legumes that comes ready cooked – all it needs is frying in a hot pan until crispy. It is rich in protein, and its flavour is shaped entirely by the seasonings.

The most popular pulled oat dishes are pulled oat stir-fry, pulled oat salad and sheet-pan pulled oat nachos. Always fry it in a hot, dry pan with just a splash of oil and no lid: an overcrowded pan steams the pulled oats soft instead of crispy.

For a stir-fry, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger work well; fry the vegetables first and add the pulled oats at the end. For sheet-pan nachos, season the pulled oats with taco spice and spread them over the nachos with cheese, then bake at 200 °C for about 10 minutes.

Pulled oats can stand in for mince in most everyday recipes, but it's worth increasing the salt and seasoning, as pulled oats bring no saltiness of their own. Some pulled oat products contain gluten, so check the packaging if you follow a gluten-free diet.

Plant protein lightens up the week without making meals boring. In Ruokaboksi's weekly recipes, the ingredients for pulled oat dishes arrive at your door pre-measured, so a vegetarian day takes no extra planning.
