Homemade oat milk is a healthy, dairy free milk made from oats and water. It is a great alternative for people who are following a vegan diet. All you need is two ingredients, oats and water, just blend, strain and enjoy. You don't need any special methods or fancy tools. This homemade oat milk is perfect for making milkshake, latte, cereals, overnight oats, muffins.
Take oats in a bowl, add in 2 cups of water and soak them for 30 mins.
Now take them in a blender and puree them coarsely. Strain this through a sieve and take the pulp back in the blender and 1 cup more water and puree again. Strain this again. Now discard the pulp.
Strain the milk one more time to remove any residual pulp.
Add in sugar and vanilla extract or ground cardamom to taste which is optional. Chill in fridge for couple of hours.
Serve cold.
Notes
Don’t discard the strained oat pulp. Use it for baking like muffin, cupcakes.
Use muslin cheese cloth or fine mesh strainer to strain the milk.
The stored oat milk naturally separates, so shake them well before using.
Add natural flavours like vanilla extract, cardamom powder, saffron, maple syrup, cocoa powder to enhance the taste of oat milk.
While grinding, add some soaked cashews to make a thick, creamy milk.
