Gluten Free Vegan Vegetarian

Acovior’s Pinhead Oatmeal, also known as Gluten‑Free Steel‑Cut Oats or Irish Oats, is a 100% wholegrain oatmeal that is steel‑cut rather than rolled, offering a heartier texture and a rich, nutty taste. It is the perfect store‑cupboard staple and ideal for traditional porridge, slow‑cook oats, overnight oats and home baking.

These oats are handled with the utmost care to meet the highest gluten‑free standards. They are certified by Coeliac UK and meet strict requirements for gluten‑free products. Oats that test at 20ppm gluten or less may be labelled gluten‑free.

Our steel‑cut oats are perfect for those who love oats and want a premium gluten‑free option. They make a delicious, nutritious breakfast topped with fruit, nuts or honey. While steel‑cut oats take longer to cook than rolled oats, they can be made effortlessly in a slow cooker and are ideal for overnight oats.

Acovior’s Gluten‑Free Steel‑Cut Oats are a distinctly delicious way to start your day — try them today.
