Making the best homemade almond milk is simpler than you think! All you need are raw almonds, vanilla bean, dates, and a nut milk bag to create this vegan, gluten-free, and paleo-friendly date sweetened almond milk recipe. Inspired by the beloved Penny’s coffee shop in Minneapolis, this recipe has received rave reviews.
To get started, soak raw almonds in water overnight to soften them. Then blend the almonds, water, dates, vanilla bean, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Strain the mixture through a nut milk bag to separate the pulp from the milk. Store the almond milk in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 5-7 days.
Try using other natural sweeteners like honey, agave nectar, or coconut sugar if you don’t have dates. Experiment with different flavors to customize your almond milk to your taste preferences. Don’t forget to subscribe to receive more delicious breakfast recipes in your inbox!
