Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 4 cups Filtered water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Step 1: Soak the raw almonds in water overnight or for at least 8 hours. This helps to soften them, making them easier to blend.
Step 2: Drain and rinse the soaked almonds under cold water.
Step 3: In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked almonds with 4 cups of filtered water.
Step 4: Blend on high speed for about 2-3 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Step 5: Strain the mixture using a nut milk bag or a cheesecloth-lined fine mesh strainer into a bowl or large measuring cup, squeezing out as much liquid as possible.
Step 6: Discard the almond pulp or save it for another recipe, such as almond flour or as an addition to oatmeal.
Step 7: Pour the strained almond milk back into the blender. Add the vanilla extract, almond extract, erythritol or monk fruit sweetener, and salt.
Step 8: Blend again for about 30 seconds to fully incorporate the ingredients.
Step 9: Taste the creamer and adjust sweetness if needed.
Step 10: Transfer the almond milk creamer to a clean glass bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Step 11: Shake well before each use as separation is natural with homemade almond milk.
