updated granola
I think we will call this the perfect pair-homemade almond milk with my favorite granola (tweaked a tad bit)! You will love this granola recipe. It’s crunchy, slightly sweet and full of all the good stuff.
And there are a bajillion variations you could try, dried blueberries, apricots, cherries, cashews, almonds, chia’s, honey instead of coconut sugar, maple syrup-so many options.
I’ve also had homemade nut milk on my list of things to make. A friend encouraged me to try a recipe recently and I gave it a go! Homemade nut milk has a delicious flavor, much better than almond breeze.
I do love califia farms toasted coconut almond milk but I feel certain you could add in full fat coconut milk to your homemade almond milk and achieve a similar flavor profile.
I soaked 1 cup of raw almonds for 12 hours then blended with warm water, a pinch of kosher salt and some date paste then strained. So easy and super yummy!
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 2 T date puree, or 2-3 medjool dates
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher
- Place nuts in a large bowl and cover with water and let stand at least 12 hours.
- Drain nuts and toss soaking liquid. In a high powered blender, purée nuts, dates, salt, and 4 cups very hot water until very smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pressing down on solids (reserve the almond pulp to add to smoothies) then transfer to mason jar and chill until cold.

How cute is my breakfast date this am?
