Plant Based Milks (Oat and Nut)

Greetings to my Titus 2 Sister saints!

I thought I'd just share my experience with making some plant based milks and not that I'm against regular milk, I was just looking to see what other options there are.

I'll share a couple simple ideas for those of you who might be interested, for whatever reason you might have, and maybe it'll be a Titus 2 blessing for you.

I'm not fond of all the fillers they put in their plant based milks in the store nor do I want to pay the price for the natural ones (sometimes I'll buy one if it's on a great discount) and these here are very inexpensive and super easy to do.

We'll start with the oat milk. 

All you need to do is blend oats with water (for a minute or two) and then strain.  

(You can use any kind of blender you have.)

You can then use the oat left overs for your breakfast or cooking or whatever you want.

Once you strain out the oats (I used just a regular strainer but some people use cloth which seems more work than necessary cuz I don't mind some little particles of oats in mine.) 

It's not thick like regular milk of course and it's not like store bought with all their gummy fillers but it's a nice, creamy alternative that we appreciate. We prefer to use it for cold drinks and and I've tried these:

Vanilla

Molasses or sorghum

Peanut butter

Peanut butter iced coffee

Chocolate iced coffee

Done. How easy it that!

*************************

Okay now on to the nut milk.  Many people like to soak the actual nut the blend it in water then strain but I know an easier way.

Ready?

Water and nut butter blended together. 

You can use peanut butter, cashew butter, almond butter, whatever kind you like. 

Done!

(You can adjust the amount of nut butter to your liking,)

You can experiment on your own but these are just simple basic recipes for simple basic people lol.  

May the Lord watch over you as you go about your Titus 2 duties.
