**Rye flakes** are made from [rye](/source/Rye) [groats](/source/Groat_(grain)) which are steamed and rolled into a flake. They may be added to [soups](/source/Soup), [stews](/source/Stew), [cakes](/source/Cake) and [breads](/source/Bread).[1]

## About

Rye flakes are produced by collecting rye, roasting it on a gas fire, and then rolling it into flakes. It is most commonly eaten as hot cereal. Other recipes that call for rye flakes include [granola](/source/Granola), [muesli](/source/Muesli), creamy soups, stews, desserts, pie crusts, and baked goods. They are one-hundred percent whole grain, thus making them very high in fiber and manganese. [2]
