Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 4 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the rolled oats with water to remove any dust or impurities.
In a blender, combine the rinsed oats, 4 cups of water, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Blend on high speed for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture becomes milky and the oats are well blended.
Place a fine-mesh strainer or a cheesecloth over a large bowl and pour the mixture through to strain it.
If using a cheesecloth, gather the edges and gently squeeze to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the oat pulp or save it for another use like baking.
Taste the oat milk, and if desired, blend in 1 tablespoon of maple syrup for added sweetness.
Transfer the oat milk to an airtight container or bottle and refrigerate. It can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Shake well before each use as separation is natural.
