Almond Milk From Almond Butter Recipe
Description
Almond Milk from Almond Butter is prepared by combining filtered water, almond butter, and optional sweeteners or flavorings in a high-powered blender. Blending thoroughly emulsifies the ingredients into a smooth liquid without the need to strain out solids.
The result is a creamy milk alternative with the natural richness of almond butter and a customizable mild sweetness from dates, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla. The absence of a straining step makes this recipe quick and convenient.
It is recommended to consume the almond milk shortly after making since no preservatives are added, and it may separate on standing. The flavorings are optional and can be adjusted to taste. The almond milk can be stored in a sealed jar and shaken before serving if left to stand.
FAQs provide advice on making multiple servings, substitutions like using a food processor instead of a blender, and storage instructions. The recipe discourages freezing and making ahead as freshness is best.
