Best Homemade Oat Milk Recipes

HOMEMADE OAT MILK

Steps:

• Put water, oats, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender. Blend until combined, about 1 minute. If you blend it for too long, it will become slimy.
• Pour mixture over a thin towel, or very fine strainer, into a bowl. Strain again for the smoothest result. Pour oat milk into a container or cup and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine the oats with enough water to cover in a medium bowl. Soak the oats, refrigerated, to soften, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• Drain and rinse the oats very well to remove any residue. Combine the oats with 3 cups fresh water in a blender. Blend on high until the oats are completely pulverized, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain the oat milk through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a container. (Save the oat pulp for smoothies or to use in baked goods.) Whisk in the maple syrup, vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Store the oat milk in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

HOMEMADE OAT MILK

Steps:

• (To cook steel cut or thick rolled oats, bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small sauce pan, add 1/2 cup of oats and turn the heat down to med/low, they just want to gently simmer for about 10 minutes. Give it a stir to check to see if the oats have absorbed all of the water.).
• Bring 5 cups of water to a boil.
• As you are waiting for the water to boil, add the rest of the ingredients to a blender. As soon as your water is boiling add 3-4 cups to the blender. Be sure that there is room left in the top of the blender and that the lid fits securely or you could risk splashing yourself with hot water when you flip the switch.
• Turn your blender on low and increase to high speed, blending for about 20 seconds or so. Check the consistency, add more water as necessary to achieve the desired thickness. The mixture will thicken a little as it cools off and eventually chills.
