Notes
No Soaking Required
Unlike traditional almond milk, this shortcut uses almond butter, eliminating soaking and straining.
Adjust Sweetness
Add more maple syrup for sweeter milk or omit entirely for an unsweetened version.
Make It Frothy for Coffee
Blend an extra 10–15 seconds for a lighter, frothier texture perfect for lattes.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Shake well before using, as natural separation may occur.
Flavor Variations
-
Chocolate: Add 1 teaspoon cocoa powder.
-
Cinnamon Vanilla: Add a pinch of cinnamon.
-
Unsweetened: Skip maple syrup for a neutral milk base.
