Almond Milk

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almonds, raw

  • 2 pitted dates

  • 1/4 tsp vanilla bean powder or half a vanilla bean

Directions

  • Soak almonds in plenty of filtered water overnight

  • Drain water in the morning and add 4 cups of filtered water, fresh dates and 1/2 vanilla bean finely chopped.

  • Allow to sit for at least 2 hours to allow the date to break up and the vanilla bean to soften.

  • Blend in a blender at highest speed until the mix is very smooth. I serve it just like this in the Chia Pudding, or if you would prefer a true milk texture (if using on granola or drinking), strain the liquid from the pulp through a nut milk bag or strain through cheesecloth over a mesh strainer

Note from Jennifer
Organic, unprocessed, raw Almond Milk wins hands down over any Almond Milk you may find on the dairy shelves. I make almond milk quite often without the vanilla bean and sometimes even without the dates … all are very good!
