How to Make Homemade Coconut Milk
Looking for a healthy dairy free alternative to cows milk? Homemade coconut milk is a wonderful substitute full of healthy fats and important nutrients.
- Yield: 4 cups of homemade coconut milk 1x
Ingredients
4 cups Water
2 cups Dried Organic Shredded Coconut
Instructions
1. Heat the water in a pot but do not let it boil.
2. Place the shredded coconut in the blender and add the hot water.
3. Let it steep for about 20-30 minutes and then blend on high until it is thick and creamy (about 2-3 minutes).
4. Strain through a mesh strainer and then strain again through a towel.
Notes
You can drink immediately or put it in a glass jar and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. I will say this coconut milk tastes amazing when made fresh! Save the pulp if you want to make coconut flour.
