Can I make vanilla oat milk without a blender?

While a blender is the easiest method, it is possible to make oat milk by soaking oats in water and then straining them using a fine mesh sieve. However, this method may result in a grainier texture. For the best results, using a blender is highly recommended.

How long does homemade vanilla oat milk last?

Homemade vanilla oat milk typically lasts up to five days in the refrigerator when stored in a sealed container. It's best to shake it well before each use, as separation may occur due to the absence of preservatives.

Can I sweeten vanilla oat milk with something other than maple syrup?

Absolutely! You can sweeten oat milk with agave syrup, honey, or even stevia or monk fruit for a low-calorie option. Adjust the sweetness to your preference!

What should I do with the leftover oat pulp?

Don't throw away the leftover oatmeal pulp! You can use it in baked goods, oatmeal cookies, or even add it to smoothies for extra fiber. It's a tasty way to reduce food waste!
