Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 ml Espresso or strong brewed coffee
- 240 ml Oat milk
- 1 tsp Sugar or sweetener (optional)
- 0.25 tsp Vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Brew 60 ml of espresso or a strong cup of coffee using your preferred method, such as an espresso machine, French press, or AeroPress.
While the coffee is brewing, pour 240 ml of oat milk into a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Gently heat the oat milk until it is steaming but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
If sweetening, add 1 teaspoon of sugar or your favorite sweetener to the oat milk and stir until dissolved. Add 0.25 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor, if desired.
Once the oat milk is hot, use a milk frother to froth the oat milk until it has doubled in volume and reached a creamy, foamy texture. Alternatively, you can whisk vigorously if a frother is not available.
Pour the brewed espresso or coffee into a large mug.
Slowly pour the frothed oat milk over the coffee, using a spoon to hold back the foam initially, then topping with the remaining foam.
Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or cocoa powder for an extra touch of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious oat milk latte.
