Be the first to rate it
Rolled oats blended briefly with ice cold water, a pinch of salt and optional maple and vanilla, then strained.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup rolled oats (organic and/or gluten-free if needed)
- 4 cups water ice cold
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup (optional, or sweetener of choice)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Equipment
- blender
- fine sieve
- pitcher
Directions
- Blend everything in a high-speed blender for 10 seconds (15-20 seconds in a regular blender).
- Pour through a nut milk bag, or a fine-mesh strainer lined with several layers of cheesecloth, and squeeze gently. For smoother milk, strain it a second time if you like.
- Serve right away, or pour into a sterilized bottle.
Notes
Refrigerate 4-5 days; shake before each use. Discard if it smells or tastes sour or off. Freezes up to 3 months; after thawing it may be gritty, so re-blend a few seconds and/or strain again.
