Oat milk is the creamiest dairy alternative for tea and coffee. It’s pretty great but does have a strong flavour that might not be appreciated by people with a more complicated palate than me.
The Target near me has “barista” almond milk that froths in a lovely way, so I can get foam on the top of my coffee or earl Grey tea. It’s next to the creamers. I think it has extra gum or other thickener in it.
Like, I expected everything to have a bit more structure because of the carbs, but they come out sooooooo fluffy. You’ll lose some of that silkiness, but you can get some of that back by adding a little more fat. Not too much or it’ll kinda collapse.
When Rosa Parks’s personal documents were digitized in 2016, the fact that she used peanut butter as a fat kinda blew up on the Internet. I’m obsessed with peanut butter (and mildly allergic), so I tried this and never looked back. Combine that with oat milk, and it’s like you’ve never truly eaten pancakes before.
Personally I prefer soy milk in my coffee vs oat milk. It’s got a subtle taste and the creaminess is closer to regular milk while only being slightly more creamy. Also goes well in overnight oats. (I’ve tried oat milk in my overnight oats, it was a bit much IMO lol)
Barley milk is also damn good in coffee but also stupid expensive. I haven’t tried it in overnight oats though as last time I bought it it was like 4x the cost of soy milk. (I’ve only bought it once)
But that’s the cool part, we’ve got so many options that everyone can have their preferred combo.
Interesting. I recently tried soy milk in my coffee and it had 0 body to it at all. Very watery. Perhaps not all soy milk is the same though. I guess I need to try a few different places

Oat milk is the fucking bomb for making pancakes and regular cakes.
I fucking love oat milk
I wish it weren’t so expensive and that it didn’t make my weight explode. But damn it’s good.
Do you have any good recipes? I never thought to try that.
I never considered that… But it sounds awesome. Thank you. Truly thank you
