Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 4 cups filtered water
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Place 1 cup of raw almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Soak the almonds overnight, for at least 8 hours. This softens them, making them easier to blend.
After soaking, drain and rinse the almonds thoroughly under cool running water.
In a blender, combine the soaked almonds with 3 cups of filtered water. Blend on high speed for about 2 minutes until the almonds are finely ground and the mixture looks milky.
Strain the almond milk through a nut milk bag or a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher, squeezing gently to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the almond pulp or save it for another recipe.
Pour the strained almond milk back into the blender and add 1 more cup of filtered water, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (if using), and 0.25 teaspoon of sea salt. Blend for a few seconds until well combined.
Transfer the almond milk creamer to a clean glass bottle or jar with a lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Shake well before using. Enjoy this paleo almond milk creamer in your coffee or tea as desired.
