flax milk



been loving this flax milk for all things lately. especially with granola and in my morning “latte” to make it extra creamy. it also packs some healthy fiber and fats making it ideal morning fuel!


it’s so simple and fast to make. + you can easily adjust the flavor to your liking!

to make:
add 1/3 c ground organic flaxseed (or 1/4 c whole flax) to a blender with 3 c filtered water & a pinch of sea salt. blend on high for 15-20 seconds (no more).
set in fridge for 10 minutes and your milk will separate into 3 layers. after 10 minutes, scoop off the top layer and either throw away or use in baked goods/granola (a perfect egg replacement!). add spices/sweetener as desired and blend another 30 seconds. i love to add vanilla bean powder, organic stevia or a few dates, and cinnamon + nutmeg!

-store in fridge 2-5 days and shake before using.

*note: as you’ll see in the second picture, more flax fibers will settle at the bottom as it sits. i like to keep these in because 1: i like the extra fiber & 2: i’m too lazy to strain it! but you can take an extra step and strain through a nut milk bag if desired.

this milk is seriously soooo creamy and delicious. i can’t believe i’m just discovering it!
