Great substitute for milk. In baking you can’t taste the difference, and it has a pleasant taste for drinking. Cheap and good for you too!
Ingredients
- 5 cups water, divided
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons walnuts
- 2 tablespoons sesame tahini
- 1 teaspoon honey, or to taste
- 1 dash vanilla extract (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Combine 3 cups water, chia seeds, and walnuts in a bowl; stir to prevent clumps from forming. Let soak for 8 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Pour chia seed mixture into a blender; add 1 cup water, tahini, honey, and vanilla extract. Cover and blend until smooth; add reminding water.
Cook’s Notes:
If I am using this recipe for soup, etc., I only add a bit of honey (milk is too sweet) and leave out the vanilla.
