Homemade Almond Milk
Prep Time: 5 mins
Servings: 4 cups
There is nothing more delicious than creamy, homemade almond milk!
Equipment
- BLENDER
- Nut-Milk Bag
Ingredients
- 1 cup almonds soaked overnight (optional)
- 4 cups filtered water
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- Big pinch salt
Instructions
- Drain the almonds and add to a high-speed blender (regular blender will work too). Add the water, vanilla and salt and blend on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Over a large bowl, filter the almond milk through a nut milk bag. Squeeze out all the liquid. Transfer the milk to a jar or container with a cover. Voila. Almond milk.
Notes
- You can make this almond milk without soaking the almonds but I like to do this because it aids in digestion. You could take this one step further by removing the skins before blending as well.
- You can discard the nut pulp or keep it in your freezer for future use. I add it to muffins or cookies.
- If you don't have a nut milk bag, use a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth (this way is a bit messier). I've also read that pantyhose work! I've never tried this if you do please report back!
