My son, Will, loves almond milk for breakfast.
*I like my almond milk on the light side. I use 1/4 cup and soak them. After soaking you will have about 1/3 cup of almond. I use 4 pc. of dates to make the milk sweet for my son. The recipe measure is done as I intended.
Cool. It never occured to me that we can make our own almond milk. I've been buying it at Marc's. It's yummy.
ReplyDeleteTake a look at your measurements on the dates and almonds Na. You've got them reversed:)
ReplyDeleteSorry Na . . . I just looked at my previous comment and your post and realized that the dates were 4 pieces! My brain read 4 cups!!!! I make mine with 1 cup soaked almonds to 4 cups water with 3 dates added for sweetness.
