Oat Poundo / Fufu

Oat Poundo or Oat Fufu is a healthy and gluten-free alternative to traditional fufu, made from oat flour. It is prepared by cooking the oat flour with water to form a soft, stretchy, dough-like consistency similar to regular fufu made from yam, cassava, or plantains.

Oat Poundo is a nutritious option that offers the benefits of oats, including high fiber content, essential vitamins, and minerals like iron and magnesium. It has a mild, slightly nutty flavor and a satisfying texture that complements soups, stews, and sauces. This variation of fufu is particularly popular among those following a gluten-free or low-carb diet, as it provides a hearty, filling side dish with fewer calories than traditional fufu options. Oat Poundo pairs well with a wide variety of flavorful dishes and is an excellent choice for those seeking a nutritious alternative to the classic fufu.
