🌟Overview
A versatile, nutritious mylk that can be made from nuts, seeds, or oats. Best options include almond, macadamia, cashew, hemp, or oat. Optional straining with a nut mylk bag gives a smoother texture.
🧂 Ingredients
- 1 cup raw nuts, seeds, or oats of your choice
- 4 cups filtered cold water
Suggestions:
- Roast nuts prior to blending for a nuttier flavor
- Keep nuts/seeds in the mylk for maximum nutritional benefit
👩🍳 Method
- 💧 If using nuts or hemp seeds, soak overnight to reduce phytates that bind minerals.
- 🍴 Place your chosen nuts/seeds/oats in a blender or food processor.
- 💦 Add the filtered water and blend on high for 1 minute.
Optional steps:
4. 🥤 Strain the blended mixture through a nut mylk bag into a large bowl, squeezing out as much liquid as possible.
5. 🏺 Pour the mylk into an airtight bottle and store in the fridge for 3–4 days.
6. 🍪 Store the leftover nut pulp in an airtight container or freeze for up to 3 months—great for baking.
