How to Prepare Simple Vanilla Oat Milk [Vegan]

  1. Add the dry oats to the blender and pulse for 20-30 seconds, or until they’re in small pieces.
  2. Add the water and let soak for about 10 minutes, giving the oats a stir now and then if you think of it.
  3. Blend for 2-3 minutes, or until you don’t see any pieces. (Give your blender a little rest in between minutes if it’s not particularly strong.)
  4. Place a nut milk bag over a large measuring bowl or mason jar and pour the oat milk through the bag. Use your hands to gently squeeze out the milk, but most of it should strain very quickly. Set the bag aside.
  5. Pour the milk back into the blender and add the maple syrup and vanilla. Blend for 10-15 seconds, pour back into jar, and refrigerate. Oat milk will last about a week in your fridge.

Notes

You can use vanilla extract instead of vanilla beans if you don’t have them or don’t want the visual effect of the seeds in your milk; I just didn’t want to add alcohol to mine.
