Almond Milk with Dates & Vanilla

A beautiful addition to your morning coffee or alone as a refreshing drink is Almond milk sweetened with dates and a touch of vanilla. 

This is a very simple recipe to make.  

Ingredients
1 cup Almonds
2 cup Water
4-6 Dates 
1 Vanilla bean

Directions
1. Soak almonds in water overnight (the longer they stay in the water the creamier the milk will be).

2. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend on full speed for 4 minutes occasionally using turbo. 

3. Using a muslin cloth or anut bag, strain the blend into a bowl or large measuring cup, and pour into a serving jug.

4. Cool in the fridge and serve!

* You can use the leftover nuts by spreading on a baking tray and roast in the oven, and sprinkle over your musli or porridge.

*Or instead of roasting you can place in a little bag in the freezer for the next time you make muffins or banana bread.  


Let me know how you go!

​ENJOY!! ​
