Oat milk. I can make it at home and customize it for 1/10th the price.
It's also near the bottom for CO2 emissions as well.
neat!
Now this I have to try! Could you talk me through how you do this? Just read a quick article on it: you only blend oats and water, then strain it? Would coffee filters be good for straining?
I use a metal strainer.
I had to try out a couple of recipes in order to get one that works well.
My recipe:
Oat Milk:
-
1 cup oats
-
6 cups water (chilled)
-
1 tsp vanilla
- Add all to blender and blend on high for 30-40 seconds
- Strain with strainer 2x
- Add maple syrup for flavoring (and/or honey) 3 tbsp
Keeps for about a week.
Theres some other similar ones like: https://www.loveandlemons.com/oat-milk/ that work out well and may keep for longer (salt).
Just tried this, worked wonders! 🙌
Awesome!
I've never been able to make non-slimy oat milk. I'll give this a recipe a try.
Do you try cooking the oats, or just cold soak?
I think its quick oats? It just said oats when I bought them but I get them in bulk food or 25 pound bags once a year-ish.
