Toasted Coconut Almond Milk

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 325 F. Toast coconut flakes for 5-10 minutes. Watch them closely, as they go from golden and toasty to burnt in an INSTANT.

2. 2

   Combine soaked almonds,* coconut and sea salt in a blender. Pour in a quart of water. Blend thoroughly until mixture is completely liquid. Strain through a fine mesh strainer or nutmilk bag. Cheers!

   * A note about soaked almonds. Soaking makes the nuts much softer, so they're easier to blend into nutmilk. Soaking also releases phytic acid found naturally in nuts (and seeds, grains and legumes) which makes them much easier to digest. I like to soak almonds for about 8 hours with a pinch of sea salt. Strain and rinse soaked nuts, and you're ready to make this recipe!
