Oat milk
A creamy, slightly sweet plant-based milk made from oats. Naturally thicker than almond or soy milk — barista versions are formulated to foam and steam like dairy. Use in baking, lattes, and anywhere you want a neutral dairy-free milk.
Used for
- lattes
- baking
- overnight oats
- smoothies
- dairy-free cooking
In the kitchen
- steam for lattes
- substitute 1:1 for milk
Picking it at the store
- Barista oat milk (fortified with fats to foam) is worth the premium for hot drinks
- Shake well before using — it separates on standing
