Raw almond milk

This recipe is a healthy alternative to cow’s milk or soy milk. You can use almonds, filberts, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to make delicious milk.

Almond milk
• 1 cup raw almonds (soaked for 24 hrs in spring or purified water)
• 3 cups water
• Optional: raw honey or 2-3 pitted majool dates and vanilla to taste

Preparation: Process almonds and water in a food processor until smooth. Separate almond milk from almond pulp using either a nut milk bag or 2 to 3 layers of cheese cloth. [Almond flour and almond pulp are the same thing].

If desired, process honey or dates with the almonds and water for additional sweetness. I recommend adding sweetener to the milk after it’s separated from the pulp. This way you can use the pulp for making almond pâté or some other dish requiring almond flour.

Almond pulp can be used for almond pâté and cookies, as well as many other desserts or dehydrated goodies.
