Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Espresso coffee beans
- 1 cup Oat milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Sugar (optional)
Instructions
Heat the water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches boiling point.
While the water is heating, grind the espresso coffee beans to a fine consistency, suitable for making espresso.
Prepare the espresso using an espresso machine or an espresso pot. Place 2 tablespoons of ground espresso beans into the machine or pot, and brew with 1 cup of hot water. This should yield roughly 1 shot (about 1 ounce) of espresso.
While the espresso is brewing, pour the oat milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching, until the milk is hot but not boiling. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Once the oat milk is heated, froth it using a milk frother. If you don't have a frother, you can use a whisk vigorously, or pour the milk into a jar, seal it tightly, and shake until frothy.
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into a cappuccino cup.
Add sugar to the espresso, if preferred, and stir until dissolved.
Gently pour the frothy oat milk over the espresso. The foam should sit at the top, creating the characteristic layers of a cappuccino.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade oat milk cappuccino.
