Oat Milk Recipe

[Oniokitty]

Hey everyone! I've been experimenting with making my own oat milk at home, and it's surprisingly easy and delicious. Here's how I make it:
Ingredients:

• 1 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
• 4 cups water (plus more for soaking)
• Optional: Sweeteners like maple syrup, honey, or dates to taste
• Optional: Pinch of salt
• Optional: Vanilla extract for flavor

Instructions:

1. Soak the oats: Place the rolled oats in a bowl and cover with water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight. This helps soften the oats for blending.
2. Blend: After soaking, drain and rinse the oats thoroughly. Transfer them to a blender along with 4 cups of fresh water. Blend on high speed for about 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy.
3. Strain: Place a nut milk bag, cheesecloth, or fine-mesh sieve over a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended oat mixture into the bag or sieve, allowing the liquid to strain through. Use a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible.
4. Sweeten (if desired): If you like your oat milk sweetened, return the strained milk to the blender and add your preferred sweetener to taste. Blend again briefly to combine.
5. Store: Transfer the oat milk to a glass jar or bottle with a lid and store it in the refrigerator. It should keep for about 4-5 days.
   

Tips: Shake well before each use as homemade oat milk may separate. Use it in coffee, tea, smoothies, or as a dairy-free substitute in recipes!
I hope you enjoy making and using your homemade oat milk as much as I do. Let me know if you have any questions or if you've tried any variations that worked well for you! Happy blending!

Quick Tips:

• Adjust Thickness: Use less water for creamier milk, or more water for a thinner consistency.
• No Soaking Option: If you’re in a hurry, you can skip the soaking step, but expect a slightly different texture.
