🥛 Low-SOS Oat Milk Recipe
Ingredients (makes about 4 cups / 1 liter):
1 cup rolled oats (preferably organic)
4 cups cold filtered water
Optional (for flavor, still SOS-free):
½ teaspoon vanilla extract or powder
1–2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut (for creaminess, but may substitute lower fat 1 T hemp seeds, or 2 T cooked white rice)
1 pitted date (if you allow whole-fruit sweetness)
🔧 Instructions
Soak (optional):
For a smoother milk, soak the oats in water for 15–30 minutes, then rinse well.
(This helps reduce slime.)
Blend:
Add oats and 4 cups of cold filtered water to a blender. Blend for no more than 30 seconds — overblending can make it gummy.
Strain:
Pour through a fine nut milk bag, cheesecloth, or very fine mesh strainer into a large bowl or jug.
(You can also use a clean kitchen towel or a French press to separate liquid from pulp.)
Store:
Transfer to a sealed jar or bottle. Refrigerate for up to 4–5 days.
Shake well before each use (it naturally separates).
♻️ Bonus: Use the Pulp
Don’t toss it! Add the leftover oat pulp to:
Pancake or muffin batter
Smoothies
Overnight oats
Homemade granola
