Don't forget to store your oat milk in the fridge.

You can keep it for 5 days.

Additional advice

- Do you have food-grade fabric filters (strainer, cheesecloth, etc.)?

This is not ideal for making this recipe.

Because they let too much pulp through.

Same for mesh colanders.

As a result, we advise you not to use them.

- Be aware that the oatmeal does not have to be completely pulverized.

Over-mixing can make the milk viscous.

Generally, it is better to filter the mixture twice to obtain a homogeneous milk.

- The less water you add, the thicker your milk will be.

This is what makes the difference between 700 ml of water and 1 liter.

If you like your oat milk a little thick, add 700ml of water.

If you prefer it more liquid, add 1 liter of water.

- Do not throw away the oatmeal obtained after straining the oat milk. You can make oat cream from it, or incorporate it into your pastries.

What is oat milk?

Oat milk is simply rolled oats and water mixed together.

The mixture is then strained to remove the pulp.

The result ? An easy to prepare, creamy and homemade oat milk! Yum!

The health benefits of oat milk are numerous.

It is an excellent alternative to cow's milk. It is also very popular with vegans.

In nutrition, it has more than one asset!

It does not contain cholesterol or lactose.

Rich in complex carbohydrates, calcium, fiber, it contains few saturated fatty acids.

On the other hand, it is full of vitamins:vitamins of group B, E, K, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium, iodine, manganese...

It's a feel-good cocktail!

Thanks to its richness in nutrients, vitamins, trace elements and minerals, it is recommended during pregnancy.

In addition, it is a milk that is very resource-efficient.

For the same quantity of liquid produced, it requires 15 times less water than cow's milk.

And 8 times less water than almond milk.

Good news, the consumption and sale of oat milk is only increasing!

Alpro, Oatly, Bjorg... All these specialized brands offer oat milk.

In my opinion, it is a milk that you can integrate into your diet without any problem.

It is low in calories (42 kcal per 100 ml) and rich in protein (0.4 g).

This is probably why it is found in so-called keto diets.

And the oatmeal?

In case of constipation, oats are an effective remedy.

Very rich in fiber, it helps regulate intestinal transit and promotes digestion.

This is also one of its drawbacks. Consumed in the morning, it has a laxative effect and aids digestion.

But in the evening, it can swell the belly and cause bloating.

Do you know that oats are also excellent for beauty?

It is not without reason that brands like Aderma, Klorane or Yves Roches include it in the composition of their cosmetic products.

For the body, hair or skin, it works miracles.

How to use DIY oat milk?

Oat milk is naturally creamy and slightly sweet. Its discreet taste is delicious.

It fits perfectly in the kitchen.

Just perfect for adding to coffee, matcha, cereal, cake, granola and more!

It is also delicious for smoothies.

You can also include it in the composition of your crepes or homemade flans.

Oat milk can also be used in savory recipes, such as quiches for example.

How to make flavored oat milk?

You can simply add a pitted date or a tablespoon of maple syrup to sweeten your milk.

If you want to give it an exotic flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Chocolate lovers can put 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder.

Or if you want to make a berry flavored oat milk, add blueberries or raspberries when blending for extra flavor!

The greediest can also add bananas.

How to avoid having sticky oat milk?

Blending your mixture too long can make the texture of the oat milk sticky.

That's why we recommend that you blend no more than 30-45 seconds.

Soaking oats in water can also make your preparation gooey. Mix the mixture immediately.

Heating your oat milk can also make it more gooey. It is better to avoid.

To prevent oat milk from becoming viscous, we recommend straining it twice.

This makes it easier to remove the starch which can give a slimy texture.

Use a t-shirt or a tea towel to do this. Because strainer or cheesecloth filters let too much residue through. But it all depends on how you use oat milk.

Oat milk with a few lumps won't bother you in your muesli.

While it will be much less pleasant in your coffee!

Can you use quick cooking oats?

In our opinion, traditional rolled oats are the best option.

Quick-cooking rolled oats are overly processed. They tend to give a viscous oat milk.

Is oat milk gluten-free?

The question is debated. Oat milk may contain traces of gluten.

Some consider even gluten-free oats to be problematic for people with gluten allergies and celiac disease.

How long does oat milk keep?

Put in the fridge in an airtight container, oat milk will keep for about 5 days.

If it smells weird, it's gone.

Why does my oat milk separate (a light part and a dark part)?

Separation of oat milk is normal.

This is often the case with many dairy-free milks.

Just shake it well before using.

How to froth oat milk?

Know that the more a milk is rich in protein, the more it will froth.

If you're looking to froth oat milk to add to your favorite hot beverages, you need to froth milk.

You can use an electric milk frother to make it easier.
