Easy Homemade Oat Milk
I don’t know about you, but when it comes to alternative milk, I am a believer in almond milk! Once I heard how delicious Oat milk was, I'll admit I was a little skeptical. When I tried it in a latte my feelings changed, and then I learned it was extremely easy and CHEAP to make at home!
After some research, I saw that a lot of people struggled with the milk ether being too slimy, watery or bland. So I rolled up my sleeves, searched the internet and got to testing recipes!
Since I don't own a cheesecloth, I found that an even better method was to use a dish towel! This material is thicker and doesn’t let through any of the pulp that makes the milk slimy. Thankfully I have dishcloths and I even found one that I had not used…more than once!
To solve the flavor and texture trouble I chose to use less water and more sweetener than originally because I found that it was creamier and a better taste!
So for your amazingly delicious, homemade gluten-free oat milk here are your directions!
Ingredients
1 cup gluten-free oats
3 cups of filtered water
2 dates
Directions
Combine all of the ingredients into a high powered blender
Blend on high for 30 seconds

Note* you can add in pumpkin spice or vanilla for some fall flavor!
Thank you again for stopping by!
