Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 4 cups Water
- 1 scoop Natural protein powder (paleo-approved, such as pea or hemp)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional for sweetness)
Directions
Step 1
Place raw almonds in a large bowl and cover them with enough water. Allow them to soak overnight or for at least 8 hours to soften.
Step 2
Drain the soaking water and rinse the almonds thoroughly under running water.
Step 3
In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked almonds and 4 cups of fresh water. Blend on high for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Strain the almond mixture through a nut milk bag or a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth into a large bowl. Squeeze thoroughly to extract as much liquid as possible.
Step 5
Pour the freshly strained almond milk back into the clean blender. Add the natural protein powder, vanilla extract, sea salt, and honey, if desired, for added sweetness.
Step 6
Blend the mixture again for about 30 seconds until all the ingredients are well combined.
Step 7
Transfer the Paleo Almond Protein Milk to a sealed container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Shake well before serving.
