For everyone who likes oat milk in their coffee and saving money:
Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds
Filter that through a clean (no fabric softener) towel.
If you want creamier texture, add 1/4 cup less water.
The remaining oats and date pulp can be eaten if you are really frugal. Just heat it up and add whatever else you want.
Use your new oat milk in a home made mug of coffee.
I was so intrigued I tried your recipe right away. My kitchen towel immediately clogged and I had to wring the fluid out with considerable force. Do you have a workaround for that or recommendations for towels to use?
Your towel might be a higher thread count than I use. I'm sorry that it didn't work out.
I will say that I usually just twist it up over a big mixing bowl and it slowly comes out. I have to press a little, but not hard.
No worries, the oat milk I produced was fantastic. So it was definitely worth it :) I look forward to experimenting with different towels
I haven't tried it, but I'd suggest trying cheesecloth. It should soak up less of the liquid than a towel would, and you won't have to worry about soaps or anything that might be in the towel
Thank you, I'll order some
Cheesecloth will be too open. You can get bags that you use for making almond milk, try a search for that.
Thanks, I will look into that
I can't see the words "rolled oats" without reading it like Ludacris.
What in the world is in that bowl, what you got in that bowl?
A sincere thank you for infecting me with this affliction. My life will never be the same.
I second this, though I sweeten with maple syrup. I use the oat paste to make protein bars.
I eat so much oatmeal that i just eat it that way. I haven't ever thought of anything else.
What all do you add for the protein bars?
I don’t use exact ratios, but the foundation is pure unflavored pea protein powder, some nut/seed butter as a binder, dates for sweetness, and then one or two add-ins to taste. I add whatever sounds yummy and is on hand. Raisins, craisins, pepitas, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, maple sugar, crushed pretzel bits. I make matcha bars sometimes, but my partner swears they taste like compost, so those are a separate batch just for me. Don’t be afraid to get creative!
You just mix it all together in a KitchenAid or by hand, press it into a pan, chill it in the fridge, and then slice it into bars and store in bags in the fridge. They freeze well if you have more than you can eat quickly.
Plus this oat milk is actually good, unlike what some people have experienced with store bought oat milk.
