When I make this recipe my oat milk comes out so watery. It’s just tastes like super watered down oats and it’s very thin. I’ve tried adding more oats but it didn’t help. I’m not sure what else to do

I am hooked on Oat milk and have succumbed to the commercial brands up until now. They are so expensive and this turned out amazing with just the two ingredients! I love innovation so I did my own “experimenting”. I kept the organic rolled oats in the freezer. I also blended the water with ice cubes to make the mixture extra chilled. THEN, I used our French Press for the first “straining”, being sure not to press down on the oats all the way. I did this twice. The final step was to strain through a mesh strainer. The milk came out absolutely delicious; so fresh tasting. Thank you for the inspiration! This method did not take very long at all.

Works perfectly! Don’t have to worry about using a whole carton. Just keep a bag of oats in the cupboard and a milky iced coffee is seconds away. Thanks so much!

If my oat milk tastes like pure water, did I not mix it enough? I was using an immersion blender and gave it 30 seconds.

Has anyone tried to mix Almonds and Oats to get a balanced milk?

My two pugs are fed a vegan dog food/diet and our vet says they’re the healthiest pugs he’s seen in all of his years of practice. Absolutely no health problems and they’ve been vegan for about 8 years.

I have discovered the solution for slimy oat milk that requires no extra ingredients. Oat milk is slimy because there is starch in the oats. Starch is not soluble in water, it absorbs the water and makes the slimy texture. Starch is a chain of sugar molecules, but if you break those chains into smaller chains they are soluble in water. This is called dextrin. So if you can convert the starch into dextrin you will not have slimy oat milk. The way you do this is to bake the oats at 275 for 60 minutes. I first ground the oats to flour which makes smoother and creamer oat milk, and then bake them. The resulting milk has a tan color, as that is the color of dextrin, but it is not at all slimy. One issue with the enzymes is that they are a catalyst which means they are not used up in the process, Thought it may not be too much of a problem for your digestion, you are ingesting the enzymes along with the milk. Plus, it’s just another ingredient that is not needed.

How do you adjust the pancake mix ingredients when you add the oat pulp?

This recipe is easy and quick! It tastes delicious, and I’m never buying oat milk ever again. Plus, I didn’t get a stomach ache like I usually do with Oatly and other brands. Thanks for the recipe!
