Homemade Almond Milk & Almond Cookies

Share

If you’re lactose intolerant like 60% of India’s population and you’ve still not made the switch to almond milk, this is the perfect way to start. Cow’s milk or any non plant-based milk contains certain sugars that easily digestible, but this doesn’t mean you need to give up on the calcium and other nutrients that come with it. Nut-based milks are equally nutritious and truth be told, nothing beats a tall glass of freshly made almond milk. These tiny movements from regular milk to a healthier substitute adds up to give you big results.

While we’re all for the convenience of store-bought almond milk, making it from scratch is its own reward. It gives you the luxury to choose your ingredients, so that it’s just right. You can make it as sweet as you like or as thick, you can even go as far as adding some spice. And it’s not as tough as you think – 2 main ingredients and around 10 minutes is all it takes. That’s not even the best part about homemade almond milk. Yes, it’s healthy, vegan and delicious, but more importantly it gives us the perfect excuse to make almond cookies!

Ingredients:

1 cup almonds

3 cups water

Optional:
