Base Ingredients
Optional Flavorings
Method
Preparation
- 1
Rinse the Oats
Place the rolled oats in a fine mesh strainer or sieve and rinse under cold running water for about 30 seconds to remove excess starch. This will help prevent the oat milk from becoming too slimy.
- 2
Blend Oats and Water
In a blender, combine the rinsed rolled oats and 4 cups of water. Blend on high speed for about 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- 3
Strain the Mixture
Pour the blended oat mixture through a nut milk bag, cheesecloth, or a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl or pitcher. Squeeze or press to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the oat pulp or save it for other uses, like adding to smoothies or baking.

Add Flavorings (Optional)
If desired, return the strained oat milk to the blender and add vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Blend for an additional 10-15 seconds to combine.

Store the Oat Milk
Transfer the oat milk to a clean bottle or jar and store it in the refrigerator. Shake well before each use, as separation may occur.
