Pecan Milk

Bottle of pecan milk with scattered pecans

Pecans are full of vitamins and minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which help lower blood pressure and boost brain health. Their naturally buttery texture makes for an ultra-creamy, dairy-free milk.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup raw pecans
  • 1 cup water, plus additional for soaking

Serves 2. 

PRODUCT NEEDED

Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer, assembled with the juicing strainer.

DIRECTIONS

  1. Add pecans to a bowl. Cover with water. Place in the refrigerator to soak overnight, or at least 8 hours. 
  2. Drain the pecans.
  3. Close the juicer's smart cap. Add a small portion of nuts to the slow juicer. Then, add an equal amount of fresh water. Continue alternating between the nuts and 1 cup of water, small equal-sized portions at a time. Work slowly to give the juicer enough time to process the nuts. 
  4. Open the smart cap to release the pecan milk. If desired, strain the milk for a thinner texture. Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

TIP

You can combine pecans with walnuts or almonds to create a flavorful multi-nut milk.
