Almond Nut Milk

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You're making creamy almond milk from scratch, which means soaking almonds overnight and then blending with fresh water and a pinch of salt. The most important part is straining the blended mixture through a nut milk bag with a good squeeze to get that smooth, clean milk—plus you'll get almond pulp that's great to save for porridge or energy balls.

  1. 1/6

    Soak the almonds

    It's important to soak the almonds about 8 hours before you start, so they soften (I usually soak them overnight and blend in the morning).

  2. 2/6

    Drain the soaking water

    Pour away the water the almonds were soaking in. This water contains the so-called inhibitors released from the nuts, which keep the seed dormant until conditions are right for sprouting. These compounds aren't great for our bodies.

  3. 3/6

    Blend

    Put the almonds in the blender, cover with fresh water, add a pinch of salt and blend.

About this recipe

A month after taking a course, I ordered a blender powerful enough to properly break down nuts. I also bought a cloth nut milk bag with a rounded bottom (so the nuts don't get stuck in the corners when you're squeezing it). I stocked up on almonds, and we were off and running.
