Most plant-based cheese alternatives are made from nuts but OATzarella is a dairy-free option that sets itself apart as an oat milk cheese wheel. The plant-based cheese alternative is uniquely made with steel-cut oats, extra virgin olive oil, agar agar, sea salt and tapioca flour, and is available in varieties like Original and Italian Herb. The cheese alternatives are said to have a mild flavor that can be enjoyed on their own or with other ingredients for snacks and meals. Notably, these products are free from the top eight allergens and soon, shredded oat milk cheese alternatives will be available.
Now that many cafes are adopting oat milk alternatives, consumers are also enjoying oat milk in everything from dairy-free chocolates and yogurt substitutes to frozen desserts.
