Almond Milk

[tahli]

Great for those maintainers minimising dairy. Or just for a tasty milk substitute (tastes a thousand times better than the bought stuff!)

1/4 cup raw almonds

Soak overnight, or for at least 4 hours in enough water to thoroughly cover.
Drain

Add nuts to food processor with 1 cup fresh water. Process thoroughly, a good few minutes.

Strain well into a jug (for this small quantity, I use a drink shaker rather than a jug). I use pantyhose to strain, or you can use coffee filters, anything fine. Squeeze the pulp well to get the creamy milk out.

Add the pulp/scraps back into processor with another half a cup of water. Process and strain again to top up jug or shaker.

The milk stores well in the fridge for up to a week. Give it a stir or shake before using.

The left over Almond pulp can be used as is, or dehydrated in the oven, as Almond meal which is a great lower carb flour alternative in baking (if you don't dehydrate just remember to lower liquid content in recipe).
