Homemade Cold Pressed Almond Milk Recipe

Did you know that some store bought almond and nut milks only contain 2% of almonds, which means you aren’t getting the benefits of plant protein! 

Which is one of the reasons we love making our own nut milk with MOD Cold Press Juicer! 🥛

It means no hidden nasties, like additives, preservatives, sugars or colouring!

Plus you can add your own little touch like vanilla extract or cinnamon to make it a little sweet 

Not only does homemade almond milk taste a million times better than the store bought stuff, by making it in your MOD Cold Press, there is no need to squeeze the milk through a nut milk bag making the process that much easier. 

Homemade almond milk only contains a few simple, pantry staple ingredients and is free from artificial sweeteners and stabilisers.

Nut milk recipe

"Let’s chat about nut milk! There are very few brands of store-bought nut or plant-based milk that I love the ingredients of. Most are filled with thickeners, emulsifiers, vegetable oils and hidden sugars. These can cause lots of unwanted gut symptoms and inflammation. There are a few great clean brands but I also love making my own at home with @modappliances. I add organic almonds, filtered water, a date, vanilla bean and a pinch of salt!"

- Steph Gobbo, Nutritionist

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw almonds, soaked overnight or for a minimum eight hours

  • 3.5 cups of filtered water

  • 1 TBSP maple syrup or sweetener of choice (more or less to taste)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of sea salt

Directions

  1. To soak almonds: Place almonds into a bowl and cover with filtered water. Allow to sit for at least eight hours or overnight in the fridge;

  2. When you are ready to make your milk - Drain the almonds and rinse twice through clear running water;

  3. Set up your MOD Cold Press Juicer for normal juicing (refer to the MOD Juicing Handbook for guidance);

  4. To your filtered water, add in the maple syrup, vanilla extract and salt. Give the mixture a stir to combine;

  5. With the juicer motor running, alternate between adding a handful of soaked almonds with roughly ½ cup of the flavoured water mixture, feeding slowly into juicer. Continue until all nuts and water have been added;

  6. Turn the juicer off, and taste the milk. Adjust flavouring to your personal preference. If you would like a thinner, less creamier milk simply add in more water.
