Oat Milk Eggnog (Vegan)
Report
Oat milk eggnog is the perfect way to celebrate this season - no eggs or dairy needed! It's creamy, sweet, rich with nutmeg, and very easy to make! Oat nog is delicious as is or blend it with cashews for an extra thick and rich vegan eggnog!

Ingredients
- 2 cups oat milk see Notes; I used Oatly

- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 to 4 Tablespoons bourbon, optional (this is ½ to 1 oz. liquor per serving)

Instructions
- Basic oat milk eggnog (without cashews): Combine the oat milk, 3 tablespoon maple syrup, nutmeg, vanilla, and 2 tablespoon bourbon, if using, in a lidded jar or blender. Alternatively, add the bourbon later to individual servings. Shake or blend to combine. Taste and add more bourbon or nutmeg, if desired. Serve cold with a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg on top.
- For thicker, oat-cashew nog: Place cashews in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Soak for 1 hour, then drain. Note, if using a Vitamix or similar, there's no need to soak.
- Starting with the lesser amounts of maple syrup and bourbon, combine all ingredients in a blender. Alternatively, add the bourbon later before serving. Blend on high until completely smooth.
- Pour into a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, whisking occasionally. Once the oat nog is hot, whisk frequently and simmer for about 2 minutes or until thickened. This step activates the starch in the cashews for a consistency more similar to classic egg nog. (We also felt like heating improved the flavors.)
- Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. If a skin forms on top, simply whisk to smooth it out. Pour into a container, and refrigerate until cold. Serve with vegan whipped cream and a dash of nutmeg or cinnamon, and enjoy!
Notes
- Type of oat milk - Important! If you plan to include cashews and heat the oat milk egg nog, either use store-bought oat milk or my homemade oat milk recipe (it includes enzymes to break down the starches). Do NOT use a "regular" homemade oat milk. The starch in the oats will become gloopy and slimy when heated.
- Store oat milk eggnog in the refrigerator for up to 6 days.
- Nutrition info will vary depending the exact ingredients used. The numbers shown represent the cashew version made with classic Oatly and 1 oz liquor.
