Oat milk is another plant based alternative to cow’s milk that has soared in popularity more recently.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup rolled or quick oats

4 cups water (more or less depending if you like your milk thinner or thicker)

2 Medjool dates

Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Soak the oats in enough water to cover them for at least 30 minutes. You can soak them overnight.
  2. Drain the oats through a strainer and rinse them with fresh water. This helps to make sure the oats don’t have a slimy consistency. Discard soaking water or add it to your favorite smoothie.
  3. Using a high powered blender combine soaked oats, dates, water, & salt (mine is a DASH), blend for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Strain the oat milk mixture using cheesecloth, a fine strainer, or nut milk bag (I used Bigger Better Nut Milk Bag).
  5. Store in a sealed container for up to 5 days. Shake before using.

Notes

You can omit the salt if you are  watching your sodium intake. 

Add-ins

cinnamon, nutmeg, or cocoa/cacao for a little chocolatey treat
