Make Your Own Oat Milk

Two ingredients, one blender, one jug of oat milk.

⏱️ 15 min🧑 Grown-up helper needed

What you need

  • 100g oats
  • 1 litre cold water
  • A blender
  • A clean tea towel or sieve
  • A jug

What you do

  1. Put the oats and cold water in the blender.
  2. Blend for just 30 seconds — longer makes it slimy.
  3. Strain through the tea towel into the jug.
  4. Chill and shake before pouring.

What's really happening

Blending breaks oat cells open so the starch and protein mix into the water, making a cloudy liquid — an emulsion.
