My favorite oat milk recipe, It tastes better to me than the Oatly brand. The oil in Oatly’s ingredients is what made me look for a homemade recipe. I love how thick and creamy it is. I use Bob’s Redmill’s Organic GF Rolled oats. When I use cold water and only blend for 25-30 secs it comes out perfect for me, it’s never slimy. I make this recipe every 4-5 days depending on how much I use in my coffee during week. As a creamer I simmer (get it real hot but not boiling) a 1/2 cup or 3/4 cup of the oat milk with a little cayenne, orange zest, cinnamon, turmeric and a date. I blend it on high and it becomes the best oat milk latte ever!
Hi. I just wanna ask something. I tried the recipe today and I frothed the milk up for my latte. But a few seconds later the oat split and it was not creamy at all. Do you know why that happens?
@@riafabella7043HI, IT SHOULD B RAW. IT'S A GREAT ADDITION AS RAW CASHEWS MAKE A DELICIOUS MILK THEY ADD A MILD EXOTIC SWEETNESS💚. JUST THE CASHEW ALONE TURNS INTO A PERFECT & CREAMY MILK, AND IF YOU SUBSTITUTE HALF OR ALL THE WATER FOR COCONUT WATER EVEN MORE DELICIOULY SWEET. 🙏✌💜☮️💟ॐ
@@michinnunapaen Use ice cold water and I only blend for maybe ten seconds. Oatmilk will always be somewhat thicker/slimier than nutmilk no matter what, but I found instead of trying to squeeze and force it through a nutmilk bag, just keep "massaging" the bag, almost like milking a cow! 🤠
My former mother in law was from Ecuador. She taught me to just blend the cooked oatmeal with more water and some sweetener and it was great in a pinch when I didn’t have milk for my kids. It was wholesome and nutritious. Now looking back. It was better than giving them cow’s milk with all those hormones and antibiotics.
Cooked steel cut oats or rolled oats? Cook it in plain water . Like 1 cup , then blend cooked oatmeal with 4 cups cold water?? Any additional add ins like dates, vanilla extract, salt ... Etc etc etc ? Would really appreciate the info. And I'm guessing strain the blended mixture .
Oatly is now $5.69 where I live. Outrageous. When I first started buying it around 2019, it was just over $4.50. Thank goodness it has a decent shelf life. (It says drink within a week once opened but I’ve kept it for 2 weeks with no issues)

Wonderful recipe! Thank for the no nonsense to the point instructions. I do have one suggestion for people though. The milk will come out creamier and smoother if you do soak the cashews over night in the fridge with water then drain and continue the rest of the recipe as shown. 🥛
I think why Oatly is getting so popular is that the taste is different due to the Enzymatic process they carry out in enzyming tanks, they add natural enzymes (think it might be Amalayse) that breaks the oat starches down into smaller components, primarily maltose, which ends up sweetening the mixture/milk naturally as well as removing some of that sliminess everyone mentions. (Maltose is also called malt sugar BTW so this is why it sweetens). You can actually buy these Enzymes in vegetarian suitable form so you can pre-soak your oats in an enzyme and water mix before blending (strain and rinse the oats after soaking).
@@veronicarameshyamb9683 honestly I really can't remember as it was a couple years ago during covid I ended up going down the Amalayse Rabbit hole looking into Alpha and Beta Amalayse and Glucoamalayse, brewing standards and equipment etc lol. Unfortunately due to health I have memory issues so don't remember a lot these days and can't find my notes.
@@kitteylovesu okay so it looks like you need a mixed enzyme that has both Amylase and Glucoamalayse to get it to work the best. This is because the Alpha amylase breaks down the longer starchy chains into dextrins which the glucoamylase then breaks down into sugars (Beta and Gamma Amalayse can do this too). This should remove the gritty, starchy mouthfeel and prevent slimy oat milk whilst giving it a natural sweet taste. I don't have any specific links but you're looking for a Gluten Digestive Enzyme mix with Amalayse and Glucoamalayse in it. Amazon usually stocks a few different types where you can look at the labels before purchase. Hope this helps.
In 1985, in Mexico, my 5 year old son was handed a frothy glass & he told me it was the best milk he'd ever had. I did not speak Spanish & quietly freaked out for a while because the house had no fridge! Finally my friend asked the family what kind of milk it was. Just oats blended in water with a smidgen of sugar.
If you only blend for 30 seconds and are sure your blending water is super cold, it does not thicken. I use it in my hot coffee and teas every day. Yum
I tried the Oatly. I got charged full price for it at Kroger, it was BOGO. I only brought one, because I didn't know if I'd like it or not. I'm disabled and cannot drive. It was EXPENSIVE. It's really good in coffee, way better than almond milk! I'm going to make my own from now on!!

@@martawiercinska2257 And don’t be afraid to use your hands to push down on the oats to press out the milk. You can use the “pulp” to put in smoothies or add flour & egg make pancakes. Up to you. Much Love. Look up Jesus is near. ❤️🕊
I've been making my own plant based milks. Current fave is cashew/coconut. Same ratio 2 or 4 cups water to 1/2 or 1 cup nut meats/oats. Couldn't stand throwing away the pulp so I make muffins and plan to try making bird cakes. Basic recipe: using the pulp from a full recipe, add 2 c. Almond flour, 1 1/2 tbs bk powder, 2 tsp xanthan gum, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1 1/2 c vilk or juice. Bake at 425F for about 20 mins. I'm a brown bag chef so you may need to tweak a little to get satisfaction. Thanks so much for sharing your journey!
I went on a trip to Sweden and oat milk is everwhere!! Every coffee house, hotel, shop.. Including oat milk yogurt which is so tasty for breakfast with fruit and nuts. Oatly, sponsor me :-)
RiseUpBlue you can make it quickly. Peel and freeze a banana. Two at least. Blend it up with the oat milk, and it is much thicker than just oatmilk. The same thickness as yogurt. Put berries in the blender too and you get fun colors of yogurt
@@chazchillings3019 I freeze my bananas once the green is gone (unpeeled) and they are fabulous with all kinds of things and they last forever in the freezer.
I love this recipe! It's super creamy and delicious. Another great thing to do with the oat bits that you strain out is feed them to your chickens (if you have some) our hens love them, they make a great treat!
Hopefully you'll pick up this message. Have to say this recipe had answered all my oat milk dreams, the cashew nuts, wow, what a difference. I was on the verge of giving up, it is so creamy. Thank you.
Thank you. I made Organic Oat milk today and tasted great! Organic Oats (3 cups) and filtered water (12 cups) cold instead of room temperate to reduce sliminess. I used Organic Coconut flour (2 teaspoons) instead of Cashews for creaminess.
I'm making it with organic oats because I just learned about how oats are one of the most contaminated food sources of glyphosate, which causes cancer. Thanks so much for saving me with this recipe 🤗♥️🤗♥️🤗
Thanks for keeping the background music in the background. Most people don't seem to understand the word "background" and I have to strain to separate the music from what the person is saying.
I've been making Golden (turmeric) Milk Latte and adding oats to make oat milk then heating to warm up and thicken. OMG smooth, creamy and sooo healthy!
Truly, a money saving life saver. I can not believe how much I've enjoyed what recipes I've tried. I remember when I tried vegan recipes years ago. 95% of them were something to endure rather than enjoy. I Love your channel. I'm hoping I can turn on a friend who must change his diet. Stay tuned...
I used your recipe and love the results. I also took the pulp and spread it out as best I could on one of my dehydrator trays and let it go at 140 for a couple of hours as an experiment. It came out crispy and flavorful. An added bonus is that it's a blank slate so I can flavor it any number of ways...it's a great quick little cracker or something crunchy to pick up and nibble on...it also lasts a good long while!
I just subscribed.... as medical student I can recommend this. It is much healthier than real milk. Real milk is unhealthy and it requires animal abuse and torture.
I have grown up in New Zealand and spent many many holidays on dairy farms there. I have NEVER witnessed any animal abuse or torture on these farms, in fact, quite the opposite.
@@trish59100 You do know that male calf's get shot in the head right? Or when the females are hooked up to machines for their entire lives?How is that not abuse wtf
@@mikemailey8763 That would be calves not calfs, and yes the bobby calves are often taken off either to be turned into veal or, depending on their breed, possibly raised as cattle. I agree that is the saddest part of dairy farming. Cows are milked twice a day (doesn't take long per cow) and they would be hell of unhappy if they weren't. The rest of their day is spent happily grazing and socializing. Farmer's work on their cow's morning and evening schedule and they don't take a holiday just to make sure the cows are kept happy and healthy. Assuming from your name I guess you don't know what a lactacting female feels. Bottom line is they MUST be milked twice a day or they will get sick.
I made this, its quite nice but I recommend passing it through the nut milk bag multiple times.it ends up being more smoother, and less slimy, especially if you clean the bag before you pass it through again.
Here because of COVID.. all of my local stores are out of oatly. Thank you so much for such a pleasant-easy tutorial. This actually calmed me a little :)
Wow, I am amazed by this recipe. After trying another Oatly recipe that required digestive enzymes, heating and cooling, that turned out undrinkable, I couldn’t believe that this simple recipe could possibly work. I tried the recipe as you said with the cashews. It looked more appealing, frothed nicely and tasted pretty good. Thank you.
And, if your water is chilled or you throw in an ice cube it reduces starch emission and therefore slime, and if you don’t have cashews may I suggest almond flour, works really well in a pinch and gives a nice flavor. Thanks for all your wonderful recipes!
Thank you for sharing this idea. Tired of buying Almond Breeze with all its fillers. When you don’t use store bought almond milk I your tea or coffee you notice how you loose weight big time. Very soothing voice too without any drama. Thank you very much.
Yes! When I went off all animal foods, finding something suitable for tea was a challenge. Oatmilk IMHO is the closest to cow milk in tea. It doesn't clump in piping hot tea and it doesn't make the tea a funny color. Did you try it?
Perfect..my daughter told me about this, definitely gonna be doing this, it’s £1.20 a litre of this in our supermarket which is ridiculous and then there is the carton which isn’t helping the planet. Home made oat milk for me from now on. Thank you
Oh lawd this is good!! I replaced the cashews with 1/4 cup of dissociated coconut and pinch of salt. Never going back to Oatley. Thank you so much 🎉. Xx
Seriously thankyou so much for the recipe. Oatmilk is the cheapest ingriedients for homemade nut milk for me. I tried this and its so good. I add maple syrup + vanilla extract and it taste amazing
What a lovely recipe - thank you! I made this with oats as described. Then I made it with rye flakes, and wow, it's even creamier and heavier than when made with oats. Nice variation. I added 6 drops of vanilla stevia and 1/16 tsp sea salt to each batch and those really made it pop!
Funny that I have always made my homemade cashew milk with 1 cup soaked cashews and a quarter cup oats for years before this current popularity of oat milk lol. Thank you for this! I will try it the other way to see if it tastes like the oat milk I buy from the store (I ❤️❤️❤️ oatly)
I've never tried making any kind of plant based milk before. This was easy to do and tastes great, I will be making my own oat milk from now on. Thank you for sharing 👍
Ok I’ve tried a bazillion oat milk recipes and THIS is the ONLY one that I didn’t pour right down the drain. Keeper! Ok I admit I added some sugar and a pinch of salt. DELISH!!! Now I’m gonna try flavoring it with my favorite creamer flavor - hazelnut, using hazelnut extract. We’ll see how that goes. THANK YOU!!! 🙂🙏🏼🙌
Ok I’m back to report a few things: - It tasted SO good that I drank all 4 cups the same day I made it. Whoops! 😬 Had to make another batch and added a little vanilla to it. Even better! - I’ve been using this as creamer in my cup of tea in the morning and it’s perfect! Didn’t even need to add hazelnut. Great on its own with the vanilla flavor. - Do NOT use quick oats for this. When I used quick oats, it got slimy on Day 2. I used rolled oats instead and day 2 was just fine. Just remember to shake or stir very well before using. Let’s just say none of my batches made it beyond day 2. It’s too delicious 😀 - Do NOT blend for more than 30 seconds. Pull out your smart phone and literally time that 30secs. I tested it a few seconds longer and it was slimy on day 2. Probably blend even shorter if you still dare to use quick oats. - For the record, I’m using a VitaMix high speed blender. I heard that you have to blend longer (1min) if you’re using a regular blender but I have no clue. - I’ve never drank Oatly milk but after having this delicious homemade oat milk I was curious so I went out and bought the low fat Oatly that has no oil. I poured a glass of this milk and a glass of Oatly and drank them side by side. This homemade milk was MUCH BETTER than Oatly to me. Now maybe the full fat Oatly tastes better than the low fat one BUT I’ll opt for THIS vs low fat Oatly any day. Now I’m looking at the rest of that quart of Oatly sitting in the fridge while I continue to make more batches of THIS oat milk recipe. 😀 Ok that’s all for me. Back to my milk! 😀 Maybe I’ll see if I can stretch it to Day4 and see if tastes the same. Dunno.
A year later... back to report that I am still drinking this daily but now I blend for no more than 15-20 seconds. Even more devoid of sliminess that way and lasts at least 7 days. And I also omit the cashews now. I accidentally forgot the cashews once and realized that I prefer the taste without cashews. My updated recipe (oh so good!!) 1c rolled oats 4c water 2Tbsp maple syrup or organic sugar (hey, I like it sweet) 1tsp vanilla 1/2tsp salt (the magic ingredient!! So yum!) Done in literally 5 mins. I add the sugar, salt, and vanilla after straining.
@@anannop I think it's close to oat milk too - mainly because other milks have a 'taste' - almond is quite a distinct & strong flavour, for example. But oat milk is just creamy/milky tasting :-) Cashew is a close match too! xxx
I just do a half cup oats and a half cup lightly salted roasted cashews. One cup of water to get it blend well...put in gallon pitcher...*Then* add the rest of the water to make 1 gallon. NO STRAINING... just swirl it around before pouring😃👍🏽
The reason Oatly is so popular is because it is a stable oat milk that you can foam just like cow’s milk and makes an amazing creamy coffee. I have tried recreating it at home and it is never the same. The milk separates and it thickens when you try to heat it and doesn’t foam.
Hello! You've rescued me from slimy oatmilk. I felt so defeated until I found this video. Since, I've recommended you rchannel to my friends. I add a pinch of sea salt with two dates and a dash of vanilla. So flippin' good!
I used to drink goat milk because I was sensitive to cow's milk. I was just reading how scabies is like a form of mad cow disease that goats can get. I had to pay $4 per quart of goat's milk and I drank almost one quart every day, that would be $120 per month. I was primarily concerned about the cholesterol in the goat milk to begin with. But after watching your program I realize I can easily switch, save lots of money, and feel better about drinking milk that reduces my cholesterol instead of increasing it, and I don't have to worry about if the animals are treated well and disease free. Thank you so much for this amazing and wonderful presentation.
Yes! No oils! I once and a while, have a vegan pizza out at a restaurant that of course has oil, but otherwise, I stay away from oils in plant mills! Way to go, to make a milk without oils! Keep it up.
Thank you for sharing. This looks idiot proof, and I can’t believe how quickly you made it. Getting fed up with my ‘organic’ Oatly barista over frothing and fizzing because of additives. TYVM💚
Exactly! I find (home made) oatmilk so slimy ... I always buy the Organic Oatly.. they only have oats - water and salt in them. Ofc. also the barista version. I need to try this, with cashews as well.
I said to myself my goal is to make (or find) an oat milk recipe as creamy or better than Oatly. I made some this morning, it was good but still missing that Oatly creamy texture. So glad your video popped up I will trying with the cashews next time because I have them raw! Can’t wait
Yummy and very easy. I used a little wire strainer, which worked great. I went vegan due to a 312 cholesterol level, so the ability to get away from additives and processed almonds is really important to me. Thanks 🙏🏻
Oatmilk is great! I saw a vegan flyer selling their vegan milk and it had the ingredients showing that they were whole foods. I said... I can make that. I was so surprised how good it was and how much like milk it was.
I just started drinking oat milk and I tried silk dont like it them chobani oat milk is my fav and havent turned back feel better then i do when i drank milk..I have looked around for receipes to make at home and this is the easiest receipe thanks for sharing....gonna try this...
Thank you soooo much. I always buy Oatly as I love how creamy it is, but I hate that it adds oil. I never thought to add cashews to homemade oat milk. I'm def going to try this.
I wished someone could up with a tangy yogurt, I am middle eastern and I miss my Greek tangy yogurt. As you know we eat yogurt with everything and the vegan yogurts are sweet tasting and does not go with savory dishes. Thank you for creating this channel!
Thankful for this as many Calif. almond producers are reducing their trees due to drought . Had been making almond milk but suspect almonds will be going up in price. 🙏
I was really surprised by how much I liked oat milk! It's a really good alternative and is very inexpensive, especially in these hard times in the world.

I love that you make it exactly the same way that I do. Wish that I had seen your video ages ago, it took me forever to do the trial and error to figure out not to wash the oats and to only blend for 30 seconds.
I recently purchased Oat Milk because I'd never heard of it before .. after watching your video I went and opened it and poured a small glass. It is not white like yours , it's a light tan color .. but it tastes good. Who knew. LOL I will have to get cashews before I can make this , but I'm definitely going to do that!

@@martawiercinska2257 And don’t be afraid to use your hands to push down on the oats to press out the milk. You can use the “pulp” to put in smoothies or add flour & egg make pancakes. Up to you. Much Love. Look up Jesus is near. ❤️🕊
I've been making my own plant based milks. Current fave is cashew/coconut. Same ratio 2 or 4 cups water to 1/2 or 1 cup nut meats/oats. Couldn't stand throwing away the pulp so I make muffins and plan to try making bird cakes. Basic recipe: using the pulp from a full recipe, add 2 c. Almond flour, 1 1/2 tbs bk powder, 2 tsp xanthan gum, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1 1/2 c vilk or juice. Bake at 425F for about 20 mins. I'm a brown bag chef so you may need to tweak a little to get satisfaction.
Thanks so much for sharing your journey!
I made this oat milk and it's delicious. I added the pulp to my sourdough batter to make bread and it was delicious
I went on a trip to Sweden and oat milk is everwhere!! Every coffee house, hotel, shop.. Including oat milk yogurt which is so tasty for breakfast with fruit and nuts. Oatly, sponsor me :-)
Oatmilk yogurt?! I'm intrigued!!
I want to know more about oat milk yogurt.
RiseUpBlue you can make it quickly. Peel and freeze a banana. Two at least. Blend it up with the oat milk, and it is much thicker than just oatmilk. The same thickness as yogurt. Put berries in the blender too and you get fun colors of yogurt
Chaz Chillings Great idea. Will try it! I do like the tartness of yogurt, so can I add some lemon to make it so?
@@chazchillings3019 I freeze my bananas once the green is gone (unpeeled) and they are fabulous with all kinds of things and they last forever in the freezer.
I love this recipe! It's super creamy and delicious. Another great thing to do with the oat bits that you strain out is feed them to your chickens (if you have some) our hens love them, they make a great treat!
Hopefully you'll pick up this message. Have to say this recipe had answered all my oat milk dreams, the cashew nuts, wow, what a difference. I was on the verge of giving up, it is so creamy. Thank you.
Thank you. I made Organic Oat milk today and tasted great! Organic Oats (3 cups) and filtered water (12 cups) cold instead of room temperate to reduce sliminess. I used Organic Coconut flour (2 teaspoons) instead of Cashews for creaminess.
Ganesh Practoor what kind of oats? Rolled oats?
when u warm that milk does it not thickens up??
Thank you! I’m allergic to cashews!!
Not a fan of cashews. Will arrowroot powder work instead of coconut flour?
@@rosiepena8848 That’s a thickener, did you try it ? I would love to know how it turned out.
I'm making it with organic oats because I just learned about how oats are one of the most contaminated food sources of glyphosate, which causes cancer. Thanks so much for saving me with this recipe 🤗♥️🤗♥️🤗
Could you send me a link please to that info? Thanks
The pulp is a good thickener to add to soups and stews.
Tara Wright
Great tip 👍
I often use it as a brownie base ))
Great idea!
Thanks for keeping the background music in the background. Most people don't seem to understand the word "background" and I have to strain to separate the music from what the person is saying.
I agree. I hate any video with loud music. That's not what I'm there for.
Whoa! I didn't really notice there *was* background music! Must be about perfect then!
I've been making Golden (turmeric) Milk Latte and adding oats to make oat milk then heating to warm up and thicken. OMG smooth, creamy and sooo healthy!
Truly, a money saving life saver. I can not believe how much I've enjoyed what recipes I've tried. I remember when I tried vegan recipes years ago. 95% of them were something to endure rather than enjoy. I Love your channel. I'm hoping I can turn on a friend who must change his diet. Stay tuned...
Ben Brown
That’s great 😃
Not just money - also plastics (or packaging in general)
I used your recipe and love the results. I also took the pulp and spread it out as best I could on one of my dehydrator trays and let it go at 140 for a couple of hours as an experiment. It came out crispy and flavorful. An added bonus is that it's a blank slate so I can flavor it any number of ways...it's a great quick little cracker or something crunchy to pick up and nibble on...it also lasts a good long while!
Great tip 👍
I’m from Puerto Rico as our parent’s & grandparents did same also, they added lemons, vanilla, cinnamon…it was delicious❣️😋
I just subscribed.... as medical student I can recommend this. It is much healthier than real milk. Real milk is unhealthy and it requires animal abuse and torture.
want some Kleenex?
Homebusinessesideas says the guy from the National Dairy Assoc😂
I have grown up in New Zealand and spent many many holidays on dairy farms there. I have NEVER witnessed any animal abuse or torture on these farms, in fact, quite the opposite.
@@trish59100 You do know that male calf's get shot in the head right? Or when the females are hooked up to machines for their entire lives?How is that not abuse wtf
@@mikemailey8763 That would be calves not calfs, and yes the bobby calves are often taken off either to be turned into veal or, depending on their breed, possibly raised as cattle. I agree that is the saddest part of dairy farming. Cows are milked twice a day (doesn't take long per cow) and they would be hell of unhappy if they weren't. The rest of their day is spent happily grazing and socializing. Farmer's work on their cow's morning and evening schedule and they don't take a holiday just to make sure the cows are kept happy and healthy. Assuming from your name I guess you don't know what a lactacting female feels. Bottom line is they MUST be milked twice a day or they will get sick.
I just made this after watching your video, soooo good and easy thanks soo much
I made this, its quite nice but I recommend passing it through the nut milk bag multiple times.it ends up being more smoother, and less slimy, especially if you clean the bag before you pass it through again.
Here because of COVID.. all of my local stores are out of oatly. Thank you so much for such a pleasant-easy tutorial. This actually calmed me a little :)
Wow, I am amazed by this recipe. After trying another Oatly recipe that required digestive enzymes, heating and cooling, that turned out undrinkable, I couldn’t believe that this simple recipe could possibly work. I tried the recipe as you said with the cashews. It looked more appealing, frothed nicely and tasted pretty good. Thank you.
This looks so easy, very small ingredient list, and beats the expensive and additive filled oat milk at the store, thank you!!!
Thank you the recipe, my oat milk was always watery, today I added almonds and it’s finally creamy!
how many did you add?
I'm lactose intolerant. So this video is great viewing. Watching from London.
And, if your water is chilled or you throw in an ice cube it reduces starch emission and therefore slime, and if you don’t have cashews may I suggest almond flour, works really well in a pinch and gives a nice flavor. Thanks for all your wonderful recipes!
Thank you for sharing this idea. Tired of buying Almond Breeze with all its fillers. When you don’t use store bought almond milk I your tea or coffee you notice how you loose weight big time. Very soothing voice too without any drama. Thank you very much.
perfect. Now i can have my Milk tea after a long time ( Mostly called "Chai" in India ). Thank you so much.
Yes! When I went off all animal foods, finding something suitable for tea was a challenge. Oatmilk IMHO is the closest to cow milk in tea. It doesn't clump in piping hot tea and it doesn't make the tea a funny color. Did you try it?
Perfect..my daughter told me about this, definitely gonna be doing this, it’s £1.20 a litre of this in our supermarket which is ridiculous and then there is the carton which isn’t helping the planet. Home made oat milk for me from now on. Thank you
Do you do natural cleaning products? Finding it hard to replace bleach. Let me know
something about her voice is so soothing
Oh lawd this is good!! I replaced the cashews with 1/4 cup of dissociated coconut and pinch of salt. Never going back to Oatley. Thank you so much 🎉. Xx
Just made this tonight. It is easy and delicious! I love the idea of adding vanilla or coconut flakes in place of the cashews.
Have you made it with coconut?
Seriously thankyou so much for the recipe. Oatmilk is the cheapest ingriedients for homemade nut milk for me. I tried this and its so good. I add maple syrup + vanilla extract and it taste amazing
I just made this and it's the first time I've ever made my own "milk" it turned out really well! 💜
What a lovely recipe - thank you! I made this with oats as described. Then I made it with rye flakes, and wow, it's even creamier and heavier than when made with oats. Nice variation. I added 6 drops of vanilla stevia and 1/16 tsp sea salt to each batch and those really made it pop!
Wow. I learn so much from the internet. I didn’t even know that you could milk an oat.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤪🤪🤪😂😍
"oh, you can milk anything with nipples, Jack"
I made this today. Amazing! I hate the waste in buying tetra-packs so this is a great solution.
Funny that I have always made my homemade cashew milk with 1 cup soaked cashews and a quarter cup oats for years before this current popularity of oat milk lol. Thank you for this! I will try it the other way to see if it tastes like the oat milk I buy from the store (I ❤️❤️❤️ oatly)
We spend so much on plant based milk every month. And I love oat milk! Thank you so much for sharing this!!!
i hadn’t seen the cashews in any other recipe and i LOVE that added thickness
best recipe yet!
I gave up on oat milk a long time ago because of the slime factor. Will try it again with this precise method and see how it goes. Thanks for sharing.
Mine is always slimmy
howd it go?
Yes, me too. Mine was so slimy and didn’t even last 24 hours without separating and smelling off.
I’m going to try blending for just 30 sec as recommended. I think I had blended my first lot longer than a minute.
Saw oatly and others use enzymes to break down the starch in it.
I've never tried making any kind of plant based milk before.
This was easy to do and tastes great, I will be making my own oat milk from now on.
Thank you for sharing 👍
Ok I’ve tried a bazillion oat milk recipes and THIS is the ONLY one that I didn’t pour right down the drain. Keeper! Ok I admit I added some sugar and a pinch of salt. DELISH!!! Now I’m gonna try flavoring it with my favorite creamer flavor - hazelnut, using hazelnut extract. We’ll see how that goes. THANK YOU!!! 🙂🙏🏼🙌
Ok I’m back to report a few things:
- It tasted SO good that I drank all 4 cups the same day I made it. Whoops! 😬 Had to make another batch and added a little vanilla to it. Even better!
- I’ve been using this as creamer in my cup of tea in the morning and it’s perfect! Didn’t even need to add hazelnut. Great on its own with the vanilla flavor.
- Do NOT use quick oats for this. When I used quick oats, it got slimy on Day 2. I used rolled oats instead and day 2 was just fine. Just remember to shake or stir very well before using. Let’s just say none of my batches made it beyond day 2. It’s too delicious 😀
- Do NOT blend for more than 30 seconds. Pull out your smart phone and literally time that 30secs. I tested it a few seconds longer and it was slimy on day 2. Probably blend even shorter if you still dare to use quick oats.
- For the record, I’m using a VitaMix high speed blender. I heard that you have to blend longer (1min) if you’re using a regular blender but I have no clue.
- I’ve never drank Oatly milk but after having this delicious homemade oat milk I was curious so I went out and bought the low fat Oatly that has no oil. I poured a glass of this milk and a glass of Oatly and drank them side by side. This homemade milk was MUCH BETTER than Oatly to me. Now maybe the full fat Oatly tastes better than the low fat one BUT I’ll opt for THIS vs low fat Oatly any day. Now I’m looking at the rest of that quart of Oatly sitting in the fridge while I continue to make more batches of THIS oat milk recipe. 😀
Ok that’s all for me. Back to my milk! 😀 Maybe I’ll see if I can stretch it to Day4 and see if tastes the same. Dunno.
A year later... back to report that I am still drinking this daily but now I blend for no more than 15-20 seconds. Even more devoid of sliminess that way and lasts at least 7 days.
And I also omit the cashews now. I accidentally forgot the cashews once and realized that I prefer the taste without cashews. My updated recipe (oh so good!!)
1c rolled oats
4c water
2Tbsp maple syrup or organic sugar (hey, I like it sweet)
1tsp vanilla
1/2tsp salt (the magic ingredient!! So yum!)
Done in literally 5 mins. I add the sugar, salt, and vanilla after straining.
I just made your recipe! So easy and it really is delicious, closer to cow milk than any others. Thanks, Jill!
Betty Morgan
Thank s Betty,I’m so glad you like it 👍
Betty, I am new to oat milk, may I ask, what makes you feel it is closer to cow milk ? Thanks.
@@anannop I think it's close to oat milk too - mainly because other milks have a 'taste' - almond is quite a distinct & strong flavour, for example. But oat milk is just creamy/milky tasting :-) Cashew is a close match too! xxx
Soy milk or oat milk, comes closer to cow’s milk ?
@@Just_Lurking8 oat milk. Soy milk has a distinctive taste amd smell as well. It’s nice on its own but it’s nothing like cow’s milk.
I absolutely love this recipe. Personally I added two pitted dates and used 6 cups of water, it was pure protection. Thank you so much for sharing.
Melitta Stafford did it go slimy on you??
Decided to make my own as most brands contain oil, this recipe is just what I was looking for. Thanks.
Oil is not bad for you.
Just tried this. Works perfectly even without a Vitamix blender
I just do a half cup oats and a half cup lightly salted roasted cashews. One cup of water to get it blend well...put in gallon pitcher...*Then* add the rest of the water to make 1 gallon. NO STRAINING... just swirl it around before pouring😃👍🏽
Rhonda Bailey, it doesn’t get slimy after a while?
The reason Oatly is so popular is because it is a stable oat milk that you can foam just like cow’s milk and makes an amazing creamy coffee. I have tried recreating it at home and it is never the same. The milk separates and it thickens when you try to heat it and doesn’t foam.
Ikr . And they say its “JUST” oat milk
True, but I'd rather make my own oat milk now since I found out that a chemical they put in there attacks the kidneys.
I made this and it is delicious. I was looking for something more earth friendly. No more washing/ recycling aseptic containers. Thank you ❤️
I've spent sooooo much money on oat milk that can be sooo hard to find sometimes. Watching this and seeing how creamy you made it really made my day.
Oatly is so expensive in China,10 US dollars per liter. Thank to your recipe, I don't need to buy that anymore.
Sending You Positive Thoughts!!!
X Guy does it taste like Oatly though?
Oooh looks so delicious
we don’t even have oatly or any oat milk in my country for some reason
so i’m pretty excited to try this recipe
It is $25 for 6 liters, so just over $4 per liter! Look at their website! ☺️
Hello! You've rescued me from slimy oatmilk. I felt so defeated until I found this video. Since, I've recommended you rchannel to my friends. I add a pinch of sea salt with two dates and a dash of vanilla. So flippin' good!
Wow I didn't even know I need this in my life, thank you so much!
I used to drink goat milk because I was sensitive to cow's milk. I was just reading how scabies is like a form of mad cow disease that goats can get. I had to pay $4 per quart of goat's milk and I drank almost one quart every day, that would be $120 per month. I was primarily concerned about the cholesterol in the goat milk to begin with. But after watching your program I realize I can easily switch, save lots of money, and feel better about drinking milk that reduces my cholesterol instead of increasing it, and I don't have to worry about if the animals are treated well and disease free. Thank you so much for this amazing and wonderful presentation.
That is fantastic Sharon 👍❤️
Yes! No oils! I once and a while, have a vegan pizza out at a restaurant that of course has oil, but otherwise, I stay away from oils in plant mills! Way to go, to make a milk without oils! Keep it up.
Thank you for sharing. This looks idiot proof, and I can’t believe how quickly you made it. Getting fed up with my ‘organic’ Oatly barista over frothing and fizzing because of additives. TYVM💚
Exactly! I find (home made) oatmilk so slimy ... I always buy the Organic Oatly.. they only have oats - water and salt in them. Ofc. also the barista version. I need to try this, with cashews as well.
I've made this recipe a few times and it still comes out slimy after a day.
I find the slimy taste disgusting though..
Just made it this afternoon and it came out slimy. 😒 Not a big fan.
@@BeachGirl34236 thank you for sharing your honest feedback! I appreciate it as mine too came out slimey
THANNNK YOU!
Making this for broccoli & sweet potatoes&& an apple dish
I said to myself my goal is to make (or find) an oat milk recipe as creamy or better than Oatly. I made some this morning, it was good but still missing that Oatly creamy texture. So glad your video popped up I will trying with the cashews next time because I have them raw! Can’t wait
This lady is a great teacher.
Yummy and very easy. I used a little wire strainer, which worked great.
I went vegan due to a 312 cholesterol level, so the ability to get away from additives and processed almonds is really important to me.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Nice suggestion
Fantastic!
Definitely going to try this. My LDL recently came back raised and I want to stick to more plant based/natural products. Thank you so much!
Oatmilk is great! I saw a vegan flyer selling their vegan milk and it had the ingredients showing that they were whole foods. I said... I can make that. I was so surprised how good it was and how much like milk it was.
I just started drinking oat milk and I tried silk dont like it them chobani oat milk is my fav and havent turned back feel better then i do when i drank milk..I have looked around for receipes to make at home and this is the easiest receipe thanks for sharing....gonna try this...
Thank you soooo much. I always buy Oatly as I love how creamy it is, but I hate that it adds oil. I never thought to add cashews to homemade oat milk. I'm def going to try this.
Exactly,what a cool hack!I love oatly but it is 1.so expensive 2.oily :-( Gonna try this!
This was soooo good 💕😋
I add cinnamon and vanilla for extra flavour
Omgosh came out perfect zero “slime” 👏
Thank you as always 💕
A smidge of pink salt to a bigger batch and a few drops of maple syrup. THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT RIGHT AWAY TIP. NO SLIME🐌
I wished someone could up with a tangy yogurt, I am middle eastern and I miss my Greek tangy yogurt. As you know we eat yogurt with everything and the vegan yogurts are sweet tasting and does not go with savory dishes. Thank you for creating this channel!

I ran to my kitchen and made this directly after watching this video! S9o delicious! Thank you!
I made this today!!! So good, so easy. Can’t wait to have it tomorrow morning. I used the fiber leftovers to make my overnight oats with.
Thank you!!
Thankful for this as many Calif. almond producers are reducing their trees due to drought . Had been making almond milk but suspect almonds will be going up in price. 🙏
Im allergic to cow milk so I needed an alternative and it was oat milk. I didn't know I could make it, now I'll have to try it.
I was really surprised by how much I liked oat milk! It's a really good alternative and is very inexpensive, especially in these hard times in the world.
I just started making my own oat milk and love it! I know what's in it, and I save so much!
I have made it without the nuts. Just a bit of vanilla.
cashews aren't a nut.
@@cordeliachase7360 of course they're nuts, what are you talking about
@@rimandriux no their not......they're a pit inside of a fruit .....try google
@@wrdmndan yes I know haha but they're considered nuts
Thanks for the tip, my sister is vegan but allergic to nuts (including cashews),wanted to get her a recipe to make her own milk alternative 😊
One guy said using chilled water is best to stops it from starching and being slimy :) good version will give it a try :) thankyou !
YESSS! CASHEWS! IT'S MY FAVE NUT & I LOVE MAKING CASHEW MILK, SO I USUALLY ADD CASHEWS TO MY HOME MADE MILKS FOR THAT SPECIAL FLAVOR.

Oatly oatmilk in the white carton has No oil. Perfect to buy and no mess in my kitchen.
I just made some - delicious and very creamy! The test will be in the morning with my coffee. Thank you, Jill.
I was just wondering how did it turn out with the coffee did it come out creamy?
I'm here waiting too!
Did it split ?
oatly is not just oat milk. it is descended straight from the heavens and i would die for that company.
Their oat milk is delicious but I feel guilty about the number of cartons I go through every week because of the rubbish it creates.
I love that you make it exactly the same way that I do. Wish that I had seen your video ages ago, it took me forever to do the trial and error to figure out not to wash the oats and to only blend for 30 seconds.
I just made some....added sugar and grated cinnamon....yum yum
Because the ingredients on the table is so simple, I was starring at your gorgeous hair most of the time.
Same here
Thanks so much. This is one of the best super healthy oat milk recipe. I use oatmilk for my masala chai. And I'm going to use this recipe for the milk
For Oatly style need to also add calcium, folate, iodine, D2 and B12. Stay safe!
or you could just take a vegan multi vitamin
I recently purchased Oat Milk because I'd never heard of it before .. after watching your video I went and opened it and poured a small glass. It is not white like yours , it's a light tan color .. but it tastes good. Who knew. LOL I will have to get cashews before I can make this , but I'm definitely going to do that!
I always buy Oatly, didn't know it was so easy to make oneself, will def give it a try.
You are so calm and natural! It was a joy to watch. I had to subscribe!! Greetings from Lithuania. Kristina
