Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 4 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.125 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
Instructions
Place 1 cup of raw almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak overnight (8-12 hours) to soften.
Drain and rinse the almonds before placing them in a blender.
Add 4 cups of fresh water to the soaked almonds in the blender.
Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes until the almonds are completely broken down and the mixture looks milky.
Place a nut milk bag or a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl or pitcher. Slowly pour the blended almond mixture through the bag or strainer to separate the milk from the almond pulp.
Squeeze or press the almond pulp in the bag tightly to extract as much milk as possible.
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, 1/8 teaspoon of sea salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to the strained almond milk. Stir well to combine.
Transfer the almond milk creamer to a sealable bottle or jar and store it in the refrigerator. Shake well before each use.
The almond milk creamer can be kept fresh in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
