When I first started looking into incorporating a more plant based diet into my lifestyle, I researched a lot of dairy-free alternatives. When I saw the price point for some of these dairy-free alternatives, I did have a bit of a sticker shock! That is why, I was so thrilled to learn about the Almond Cow machine and how I can save money making my own dairy-free “milk” at home.
One of the first recipes, I tested was my vegan chocolate oat milk recipe! This recipe has quickly become one of my kid’s favorites, and I find myself making it all the time.

What you need to make our Chocolate Oat Milk Recipe:
The Almond Cow Machine
We love our Almond Cow machine! One of the MANY benefits of using The Almond Cow is that it allows you to control the ingredients and sweetness of the milk, making it a healthier and more natural alternative to store-bought almond milk.
Additionally, The Almond Cow is easy to use, clean and can save you money in the long run by reducing the need to purchase store-bought almond milk.
Another benefit of The Almond Cow is that it allows you to make other plant-based milks, such as oat milk, rice milk, and hemp milk. The machine also allows you to make nut butter, cold-pressed juice, and more.
Another amazing bonus is that the Almond Cow is also environmentally friendly! It reduces the use of plastic containers and packaging, and eliminates the carbon footprint of transporting store-bought milk. It is an eco-friendly and sustainable way to enjoy plant-based milk.

Organic Coconut Shreds
I am a big fan of coconuts! I love purchasing my coconut shreds directly from Almond Cow because it is USDA Certified Organic, gluten-free, non-GMO Project Verified, and Glyphosate Residue Free. They are great for all kinds of baking! You can buy them here!
Organic Whole Grain Oats
You cannot have oat milk, without oats right? I also purchase my whole grain oats directly through Almond Cow because of all the reasons I listed above. You can buy your bag here.
What are the Benefits of Oat Milk?
Oat milk is a plant-based milk alternative made from oats. It is a good source of carbohydrates and dietary fiber, and is also low in fat and cholesterol-free. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, calcium and iron.
Oat milk is also a good option for those who are lactose intolerant or have a milk allergy. Additionally, it is often fortified with vitamins and minerals, making it a nutritious option for those on a plant-based diet. Oat milk is also a good choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact, as it requires less water and land to produce compared to cow’s milk.
