Milk alternatives

Page 1 of 4Next

I just wondered what milk's people were using instead of cows milk and soy milk.

I have just got some oat milk this week after emailing the company to make sure they didn't fortify it with Vitamin A. I actually quite like it - goes really well in coffee as well.

I use non-fortified coconut milk.

Coconut water or just water. I am hardcore like this lol

I’ve used coconut milk when I need a milk substitute in recipes (like pancakes).

What is the brand oat milk? I’d like to try it if possible. Thanks Bella

Hi Bella,

The brand is 'Oatly'. I'm in the UK, not sure if it's a UK only brand.

It's honestly the closest consistency to cow's milk of anything I've tried. I am tempted to try their 'cream'.

Thank you. Bella

Organic non-fortified oat drink (Oatly) which is pretty blend so I used ut for pancakes and such. I like the non-organic better because it is creamier (due to added oils) but they are all fortified in my country. I am/was a huge milk fan so no substitute is good enough, but oatmilk is the least horrible solution (and the cleanest too: water, oats, salt)

I avoided oatly specifically because of the added canola oil, thanks for informing me about the organic version 🙂

I found an oat milk on Amazon that is made in Canada called Elmhurst Milked Oats. It appears no vitamin A is added but I’ve emailed the company to verify.
