Homemade Hazelnut Milk
I like to occasionally make homemade nut milks as it feels like a real treat.
This homemade hazelnut milk is a yummy dairy free alternative. It's super creamy with a little sweetness from the date and vanilla. By making your own plant-based milks you can ensure the ingredients going into it are clean.
This is my standard recipe when making any kind of plant-based milk.
Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 cup hazelnuts
3-4 cups of water depending on how creamy you want it
1 date (optional)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of Himalayan sea salt
Instructions:
Soak hazelnuts in the fridge overnight.
Strain and rinse the nuts and transfer to a blender. Then add the water, date, vanilla and salt.
Blend on high speed until completely smooth.
Pour the milk into a cheesecloth or nut milk bag and squeeze the milk into a bowl.
Pour the strained milk into a jar and enjoy!
