Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 4 cups water
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened protein powder (Whole30 compliant)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the raw almonds in a bowl and cover them with 2 cups of water. Soak the almonds overnight or for at least 8 hours to soften them.
Step 2
Drain and rinse the almonds thoroughly under cool running water.
Step 3
Transfer the soaked almonds to a blender along with 4 cups of fresh water.
Step 4
Blend on high speed for about 2-3 minutes or until the almonds are finely ground and the mixture looks milky.
Step 5
Line a large bowl or pitcher with a nut milk bag or a clean cheesecloth folded into several layers. Pour the almond mixture into the bag or cloth.
Step 6
Squeeze and press the nut milk bag or cheesecloth to extract as much liquid as possible from the almond pulp. Discard or save the almond pulp for another use, such as baking or adding to smoothies.
Step 7
Rinse the blender and pour the strained almond milk back into it. Add the unsweetened protein powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Step 8
Blend again on high speed for 30 seconds until all ingredients are well combined and the milk is smooth.
Step 9
Taste the almond protein milk and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 10
Pour into a clean glass jar or bottle and refrigerate. Shake well before each use. Enjoy your Whole30 Almond Protein Milk chilled or as an addition to smoothies, coffee, or cereal.
