1 cup oats
1 cup fresh blueberries
2 pitted dates
3 cups cold water
Preparation
Equipment
Blender
Nut milk bag or fine mesh strainer
Bowl or pitcher for collecting the milk
Jar or container for storage
Drain and Rinse
Once soaked, drain the oats and rinse them under cold water.
Blend the Oats and Blueberries
Combine the oats, blueberries, and water in a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, typically for 1-2 minutes.
Strain the Mixture
Position a nut milk bag or fine mesh strainer over a bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended mixture into the bag or strainer. Squeeze the bag or use a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible. The leftover oat pulp can be saved for other recipes or discarded.
5. Flavor the Milk (Optional)
If you wish, add sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the strained oat and blueberry milk. Blend briefly again to mix.
6. Store the Oat and Blueberry Milk
Pour the oat and blueberry milk into a jar or container and refrigerate. Consume within 3-5 days. Shake well before use, as natural separation may occur.
Tips
