Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 4 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
1. Start by soaking the rolled oats in water for about 15 minutes then drain and rinse them well. This helps remove any unwanted starch and prevents a slimy consistency.
2. Add the soaked oats to a blender with 4 cups of fresh water.
3. Blend on high for 30-40 seconds, or until the mixture looks creamy and smooth. Avoid blending for too long as this might lead to a slimy texture.
4. Place a fine-mesh strainer or a nut milk bag over a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended oat mixture through the strainer to separate the liquid oat milk from the oat pulp.
5. Squeeze or press the remaining oat pulp in the strainer to extract as much liquid as possible.
6. After the oat milk is strained, stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
7. Transfer the creamer into an airtight container or bottle and refrigerate. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well before each use as separation is natural.
