How to Make Homemade Oat Milk
- Bring 5 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
- While the water is heating, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup maple syrup (or other sweetener to taste), 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a high-speed blender.
- Once the water boils, carefully pour 3-4 cups into the blender with the other ingredients. (Leave some hot water for adjusting consistency later).
- Secure the blender lid tightly to prevent hot water from splashing.
- Blend on low speed, gradually increasing to high, for about 20 seconds until smooth.
- If the mixture is too thick, add remaining hot water, one cup at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. (Note: it will thicken slightly as it cools).
- Strain the oat milk through a fine-mesh sieve or nut milk bag lined strainer (optional, for a smoother texture).
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the milk to chill. Enjoy!
