Gluten Free Oat Milk
Today I’m showing you how to make your very own gluten free oat milk with only 3 ingredients in under 5 minutes. It’s way cheaper than the store bought kind!
Making your oat milk gluten free
By now, you’ve heard of the milk sweeping the nation.
It’s not sourced from cows (how very 2010) or squeezed from pulverized nuts or seeds.
Nope, it’s 2020 and we have moved on from all that. Now, we get our milk from oats.
And as a gluten free foodie (let the record show that I feel like a super basic b**** saying that), it is my duty to give you my favorite gluten free oat milk recipe.
The key to making your oat milk gluten free? My favorite gluten free oats.
Ground breaking? I know! YOU’RE WELCOME 🙂
Straining tips & more
It’s important to have the correct tools ready before you start making your milk.
Letting your oats and water sit for too long in your blender will result in slimy milk. Slimy milk = bad.
Make sure you have a strainer AND cheesecloth ready to strain your milk BEFORE you blend.
Using a double straining system helps to ensure no oat particles fall through into your liquid.
Storage
Your homemade gluten free oat milk can last up to two weeks in the fridge when sealed correctly.
Make sure to cover your container with an air tight lid and shake before using!
Happy cooking!
