Oat Milk

No ratings yet
Oat milk is a great alternative to regular or nut-based milk. It tastes really great with coffee, tea, and even cereal and cookies. Making oat milk at home is super-easy, does not require soaking oats overnight, and because you’re not pasturing the milk (like commercially made milk) it’s loaded with naturally occurring protein and vitamin D.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats, (or gluten-free rolled oats)
  • 3 cups water, (filtered)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, (optional)
  • 4 Medjool dates, (optional)

Instructions

  • Add oats, water, vanilla extract (if using), and dates (if using) to a blender and blend on high until smooth.
  • Strain milk by pouring through a nut milk bag or cheesecloth into a pitcher or bowl. 
  • Use your hands to squeeze milk out of a nut milk bag or cheesecloth. 
  • Discard oat pulp (or save to use as face scrub!) and refrigerate milk. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. 
  • Shake thoroughly before drinking. 

Cheers!
