Chocolate Oat Milk Tips
For this recipe, you can use store-bought or homemade oat milk. The homemade version is more affordable, but there are more and more store-bought options popping up in stores all the time if you’re looking for a shortcut. If you use the store-bought version, choose the unsweetened variety.
This vegan chocolate oat milk is a bit dark, and not too sweet. For a sweeter version, add a bit more maple syrup to suit your tastes. And cut back on the cocoa powder for a lighter chocolate flavor.
In order to eliminate the chalky texture of the cocoa powder, it’s a good idea to boil it in water along with the pure maple syrup and chocolate chips. This allows the cocoa to fully dissolve.
I use a blender to make this chocolate oat milk recipe, but you could also whisk it by hand if you don’t have a blender.
This recipe yields 4 one-cup servings. You can use the slider in the recipe card to adjust the number of servings if you want a larger or smaller batch, and it will adjust the ingredient list for you.
