💭 Tips
- Blend for 20-30 seconds; over-blending gives a slimy texture.
- If you want to use this for creamer, start with less water.
- I adjust the amount of maple syrup depending on how I use it. I like my oat milk on the sweeter side for coffee and cereal but prefer less sweetener for a smoothie. Start with less and see how you like it.
- Oat milk will separate when stored in the fridge. Just give it a shake before using it.
- Don't heat it up with your coffee; it will become slimy. Instead, add cold oat milk to your hot coffee.
