Learn how to make oat milk that's not slimy using this simple technique and you'll never want to buy store-bought oat milk again!

This is the oat milk recipe I use in much of my baking – in fact, I recommend oat milk for baking in general because it tends to have a lighter constitution that doesn't "glomp" up baked foods.
How To Make Oat Milk That's Not Slimy
One of the biggest problems people encounter with oat milk is that it has a tendency to become slimy.
The secret to making oat milk that's NOT slimy is that you must not squeeze absolutely every last drop of liquid from the oat solids when straining.
So, don't pour your blended oats and water in to a nut milk bag and start squeezin' – although if you have a nut milk bag, you can definitely use it to make oat milk.
Just lay the bag flat over a bowl and pour the blended liquid right through both layers of the fabric. You can set a metal spoon on the bag first if it's too stiff to drape down into the bowl.
Straining the Oat Milk
-
Lay nut milk bag or towel over a bowl. The spoon helps the center stay low. -
Pour the blended oat mixture. -
Hold a spoon vertically to help liquid pass through without pressing.
