Vanilla Macadamia Milk

Author Notes

Richer and more decadent than almond milk, but equally easy (if not easier) to make, this rich, homemade non-dairy milk is perfect for muesli, oats, puddings, and other creamy vegan dishes. For a savory version (which you can add to soups), simply omit the sweetener. —Gena Hamshaw
