NUTTY KNOWLEDGE

Wondering what to do with all those leftover nuts?

Use them to bulk up date balls, or throw them into a batch of home-made granola.

You can make this with a less powerful blender, but you’ll get a watery result.

Most home-made milk alternatives will settle a little while waiting in the fridge.

Store yours in a jar, or a bottle with a lid, so that you can give it a quick shake before use.

You can also add cinnamon or cacao powder for a flavoured milk.

Home-made oat milk won’t froth (it lacks the fat required to make that work) so if you’re after a frothy flat white, add

100 g soaked raw cashews and 50 g coconut flakes, or alternatively, 1 t coconut oil to the recipe above.
