Part Two
Rather than buy Oatley oatmilk (see Part 1 of 2), I decided to make oat milk at home. I googled recipes for barista style oat milk and experimented with online suggestions.
A barista oat milk takes only a few minutes to prepare – with no soaking needed of oats or cashew nuts.
Contents
- I pinch of Himalayan salt
- I tablespoon of organic sunflower oil
- 300 ml (one mug) of rolled, organic oats, preferably locally grown.
- 900 ml (three mugs) of cold, filtered water
- Can sweeten, such as vanilla
- One nut milk bag
- One bowl
To Make Barista Oat Milk
- Place two and a half or three mugs of water into main blender.
- Add sunflower oil
- Add sweetener
- Add pinch of salt
- Turn on blender for a few seconds to blend contents
- Turn off blender
- Pour a mug of oats into blender
- Turn on blender for up to 30 seconds.
- Pour blended contents into nut milk bag over bowl
- Slowly squeeze all oat milk into bowl.
- Transfer oat milk from bowl into a litre bottle with cap
Make a coffee or tea.
Shake bottle of oat milk well.
Put milk first in cup and slowly pour coffee or tea on top.
Healthy. Delicious.
Enjoy the taste.
PS. Home-made barista oat milk costs less than half the price of a carton of Oatley. No shipping, no cartons, no waste, no contribution to Donald Trump’s election campaign. Right after use, place your bottle of oat milk in fridge to keep it fresh for three to four days.
300ml of oats doesn’t make sense. If you’re using a mug that can hold 300ml of water, for me the same mug held around 130g of oats.
Wow I had no idea I’d been contributing to Trump. Many thanks for this delicious, way more economical and easy on the planet recipe!
Fantastic, thankyou so much for this. Exactly what I was looking for after missing Oatley Barrsita. Just tried it and it’s perfect.
Can you heat this milk like oatly?
I tried and it ended up like porridge
