How to make Oatmeal and Cheese Patties
- Step 1
Place the oats in a bowl and cover them with milk. Let them soak for a couple of hours.
- Step 2
In another bowl, combine the chopped onion, parsley, and crumbled cheese. Mix everything well.
- Step 3
Add the eggs and the soaked oats to the mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are well incorporated, seasoning with salt to taste.
- Step 4
Take portions of the mixture and shape them into patties, flattening them slightly.
- Step 5
Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet and fry the patties on both sides over low heat. This will ensure they cook through on the inside and turn golden on the outside.
- Step 6
Remove the patties from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb any excess grease.

Fresh cheese is ideal, but you can use other crumbly cheeses like feta or queso fresco.
Can I bake the patties instead of frying them?
Yes, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) until golden brown, but frying gives them a crispier texture.
