DAIRY-FREE ALMOND MILK CREAMER
My favorite nut to use for this creamer is blanched or peeled almonds, but cashews and hazelnuts also work well. If you want a slightly creamier base and don't mind a nuttier flavor, you can reduce the water to 2 cups. Please note that the Prep time is hands-on time only; the nuts need time to soak! You can pre-soak the nuts and keep them in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Steps:
- Put the almonds in a container and cover with a few inches of water. Cover and place in the refrigerator to soak for 12 to 24 hours.
- Drain and rinse the almonds.
- Put the soaked almonds and 2½ cups water in your blender. Blend until relatively smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
- For a smoother finish, pour the milky mixture through a nut milk bag or a few layers of cheesecloth lining a sieve to strain. Squeeze the pulp to extract as much milky goodness as possible.
- Return the nut creamer to your blender and blend in the sweetener (if using), extract (if using), and salt.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Stir before each use; it will thicken and separate as it chills.

Steps:
- Place 1 cup of raw almonds in a clean mason jar or other container with an airtight lid. Cover with 2 cups of water. Seal and let sit on the kitchen counter for 48 hours (but no longer)! Change out the water at least every 12 hours.
- Drain off the soaking water and rinse the almonds. Add the soaked almonds to a food processor or blender along with 1 1/2 cups of water. Pulse/puree until the almonds are pulverized and the mixture is white - about 30 seconds.
- Place a nut milk bag inside a bowl and then pour the pureed almond mixture into the bag. With super-clean hands, lift the bag and squeeze to get every last bit of milk out.
- Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Homemade almond milk coffee creamer keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week. But it rarely lasts that long around here!
