Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 4 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Vanilla protein powder (plant-based)
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Place the raw almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak overnight or for at least 8 hours to soften them.
Drain and rinse the soaked almonds thoroughly.
In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked almonds and 4 cups of fresh water.
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 2 to 3 minutes, until the almonds are fully broken down and the liquid is opaque and milky.
Place a nut milk bag or a fine sieve lined with cheesecloth over a bowl and pour the almond mixture into it.
Squeeze the nut milk bag or cheesecloth to extract the almond milk, leaving behind the almond pulp.
Transfer the almond milk back into the blender. Add the vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Blend again for about 30 seconds to combine the ingredients thoroughly.
Taste the almond protein milk and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more maple syrup to taste.
Transfer the almond protein milk into an airtight jar or bottle and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Shake well before each use.
