Description

This homemade low carb almond milk is a simple, dairy-free alternative made with just almonds and water. It’s naturally low in carbs, perfect for keto, paleo, and vegan diets, and free from preservatives or added sugars.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup raw almonds

4 cups filtered water

Pinch of sea salt (optional)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for flavor)


Instructions

1. Soak almonds in water overnight, then drain and rinse.

2. Add soaked almonds and 4 cups fresh water to a high-speed blender.

3. Blend on high for 1 minute until smooth and creamy.

4. Strain the mixture through a nut milk bag or cheesecloth into a large bowl.

5. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

6. Add sea salt or vanilla if using, stir well.

7. Store in a sealed glass bottle in the fridge for up to 4 days. Shake before use.

Notes

For a creamier milk, use less water.

Pulp can be saved and used in baking or smoothies.

Always use unsweetened almonds for lowest carbs.
