Sesame Almond Milk Recipe
There is practically nothing on this Earth as yummy as fresh Almond Milk...(okay, well maybe Coconut Milk). Once you realize how easy this is to prepare, you can begin creating variations, adding even more nutrients and flavor to this remarkable beverage! Today I prepared Sesame Almond Milk and it is delicious!
Almond milk is a great Smoothie or Pudding base. Add ingredients like Cacao Powder, Lucuma Powder, Mesqujite Powder, Maca Powder, Ceylon Cinnamon, Medicine Flower extracts, etc for a flavorful and nutritoius beverage.
*PULP - Almond pulp can be used to make Almond Flour, or used wet in many raw recipes. I store my pulp in zip lock bags and freeze until I have enough. Spread on non-stick dehydrator tray (or cookie sheet if using oven), and dehydrate at 110 degreesd F until very dry. If you have a dry blade Vitamix container - run the dried pulp through that or a nut seed grinder, or food processor, and you'll have a lovely fluffy flour. Store flour in freezer until ready to use.
If preparing in oven, you'll have to experiment with temp and time, and it won't be raw...but you will get a nice almond flour that can replace white flour in most recipes! You want to dry it..not cook it! Enjoy!
