This oat milk recipe has just two main ingredients and comes together in 5 minutes (without any special equipment). Make it plain or flavor it with one of 4 delicious options!
Sweetened: 1 Tbsp maple syrup or light brown sugar
Vanilla: ½ tsp vanilla extract
Chocolate: 2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Berry: ½ cup mixed berries
Instructions
Blend: Add oats and water to a blender. Blitz just until oats are broken down, about 30 seconds (lean on the side of blending too little - over blending can release the oat starches and make the oat milk slimy).
Strain: Lay a thin dish towel in a colander and pour mixture through. Do not squeeze the oats, just let the milk drain out (squeezing can cause slimy oat milk). Discard the oat pulp.
Adjust: Add a pinch of salt and optionally blend in your desired flavors. If oat milk is thicker than you'd like, just add a bit more water (up to 1 cup). Serve chilled.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
