Whether you're vegan, lactose intolerant, or you want to try something new, this oat milk recipe is a great substitute for cow's milk.
Ingredients
- 1 cup oatmeal
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 4 cups water
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 1 teaspoon agave (optional)
Steps
Place the oatmeal in a big bowl then add your water. Let the oatmeal sit for 30 minutes or leave it overnight.[1]
Dump the oatmeal into a blender. Blend the oats on high for 1 minute.[2]Advertisement- Once done blending use a sieve to get rid of the left over pieces of oatmeal. Place the sieve over a large bowl and pour the oat milk in slowly. Keep doing this until there is no more oatmeal left inside the milk.[3]
- Whisk in the vanilla extract, agave, and cinnamon. This step is optional but it adds flavour to the milk so it's not bland.
- Pour the oat milk into an empty container then store it in the fridge.[4]
- Done. Use the oat milk like regular milk. You can add it in your cereal, coffee, tea, and when you're baking.[5]Advertisement
Community Q&A
- QuestionHow long can the homemade oat milk last?
BananagalCommunity AnswerIf sealed correctly it will last 1 week. - QuestionWhen I make oat milk this way, it becomes thick when I boil it, like porridge. The oat milk from the shop does not do that. How do I make oat milk that will not become thick when heated?
Cornelia VenterCommunity AnswerOats contain a form of gluten called avenin. Avenin can make the milk go "sticky" or thicken. Just change your ratio and add more liquids. - QuestionWhat do I do with the solids that are left over?
AnonymousSuperWriterCommunity AnswerYou can also make composts with the solids instead of throwing them away, as oats tend to have lots of nutrients to them.
