Almond Milk 

by Tebasiles Kitchen


Almond milk is easy to make. Use in place of pasteurized milk for all purposes.

Ingredients:
100 g Almonds, soaked overnight, drained and rinsed
1-2 Dates, optional
1,2 l Water, divided

Method:

  • Place the almonds, dates (if you choose to sweeten your almond milk) and 800 g water in TMX bowl and blend for 1 min / speed 10
  • Strain the almond milk through a nut milk bag or fine strainer into a large bowl
  • Return the pulp to TMX and blend 30 sec / speed 10 with remaining water. Strain again
  • Store the strained almond milk in a glass jar in the refrigerator and the left over pulp in the freezer for other recipes

Variation:
- half almonds / half sesame seeds
- add vanilla
- use agave, honey, stevia or maple syrup instead dates
- use half amont of the water for a creamier nut milk
