Just 2 Ingredients- Make Homemade Coconut Milk/Healthy
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 03. 2023
- Coconut Milk is so simple to make. It takes only 2 ingredients and a few minutes to make. Along with Intermittent Fasting comes a healthy lifestyle. Instead of buying coconut in the store that is full of preservatives and stuff I can't pronounce, make your own at home. This tastes better and is inexpensive to make.
The book I got the recipe from:
"Glow- The Nutritional Approach to Naturally Gorgeous Skin", by Nadia Neumann:
amzn.to/3l7Z0xy
Recipe:
4 cups of filtered water
1 1/2 cups of unsweetened shredded coconut
1 TBSP vanilla extract (optional for sweetness)
1. blend water and coconut
2. place in a saucepan and get to hot, but not boiling. turn off burner and let mixture cool for a half hour.
3. strain out coconut over a bowl. Pour coconut milk into a container and leave in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
4. The coconut milk will separate when it sits. Just simply shake before using.

I’ve been making coconut milk for a couple of months now but instead of cooking it the recipe that I found was a cup and a half of shredded unsweetened coconut and 4 cups of warm water in a high-powered blender and blend for two minutes. Then you squeeze it through a nut milk bag. I love having this around and always try to have it in my refrigerator.❤❤❤
I read the book "Glow-the Natural Approach to Naturally Gorgeous Skin". She has so many good recipes in her book.
@@sandysteinbrook I’ll have to check that out. I got this recipe from Autumn Bates Who has a CZcams channel. She’s a certified nutritionist and has lots of other things after her name that she has her masters in. I just liked it because it was easy and it taste delicious. I’ll have to try your recipe for it and see which one I like better.😊
@@Robin7-26 , and I am going to try yours! :)
@@sandysteinbrook When I put the ingredients in my Vitamix for two minutes. It gets pretty hot. In fact I have to wait until it cools off before I can strain it in a nut milk bag. You’ll have to let me know what you think and I’ll tell you what I think too😃
@@Robin7-26. After it’s Vitamixed, would it still have to be sieved?
Looks great and simple............thanks for sharing.
PS What I ended up trying was blending 1 cup of shredded coconut and 1\2 cup of quick oats with about a half gallon of distilled water. Then strained it. It really is delicious. I can put it in my coffee and just drink a glass plain. I did also add a pinch of salt before blending.
You're welcome! :). Let me tell you since making this video and reading the comments, I have stopped warming the coconut first. Now, I just put it in the blender and blend it up. So now it is even simpler.
I love C .Milk and cook with it, buying the canned option is now too costly.
It has a subtle healthy flavor to stovetop curry chicken with onions, potatoes, peas, carrots or spinach.
So true, all the grocery offerings of container milk alternatives are loaded with additives.
Tfs, I make banana smoothies often.
Making this is a breeze compared to almond milk, plus the coconut is much less expensive.
I have never made almond milk but after making this, I don't ever see a reason to try. You are right about it being cheaper!
Wow! This never even occurred to me that you can make coconut milk!
I didn't know either or I would have started it years ago! I just posted a video on how to make almond milk, which I also had no idea I could make because I thought it would be hard....So easy! No warming of anything needed. Here is that video if it interests you too.

Thank you for this simple recipe, Sandy. I did read elsewhere that you can dry the pulp and it makes coconut flour.
Thank you for sharing this tip, Mary!
this is PERFECT timing!!! im starting WW Monday and coconut milk is on my list thank you sooo much ❤🙏😁
Oh good!! Perfect timing.
Thank you !!!
I heard some coconut milk is bad for you with all the additives. I really wanted to find something healthier. So your sharing this is fabulous. I love all the comments your viewers share too. You all inspire me.
Agree! I learn so much from the comments
I finally gonna to try this
Just to let you know, Nancy....after the comments from people I stopped heating the coconut first. In the book I read, that is how they did it, which is why I did it that way. So now, I simply put the 1 cup of coconut shreds in 4 cups of water, blend it and strain off the coconut shreds. It is sooo fast to make!
For almond milk you can use vanilla and or pitted dates to sweeten, plain or sweetened you do add a dash of salt to the almonds and water, blend for a couple minutes and strain, no heating up on the stove. Sandy, are you doing anything with the coconut pulp or just tossing it out? 🤔 being way less expensive than almonds I'm thinking I wouldn't mind tossing it. Thank you, another great video ❤️
Thank you for sharing this, Julia! I will not heat it up anymore. I didn't know that and now I don't have to take time doing that. I learn so much from you guys.
I make homemade almond milk and it is so delicious 😋 and simple to make as well. However, I always struggle with what to do with the pulp. I have put it on my cereal, in a smoothie and even made cookies with it but I can never keep up with the amount of pulp. I don't want to throw it away so then I stop making the milk. It's a vicious cycle lol because I want my almond milk. The store bought is full of ingredients I don't want just as you mentioned. I have coconut in the freezer and so I will definitely try this. I've also made oat milk but didn't care for it that much. I use nut bags to strain the milks that I bought on line but absolutely love your lingerie bag idea 😊
I love the taste of coconut milk, but hate the taste of shredded coconut. I don't like the texture in my mouth. So, I wasn't sure what to do with the leftover coconut.
awesome simple!
Sure is!
Those earrings! I love that colour they look beautiful on you.
Thank you!!
Love this
I am glad it was helpful!
Thank you God Bless
God bless you as well!
I have been making coconut milk for probably over 15 years, in my Vitamix. I buy bulk, as in 25 pound bags from a couple of different companies. For those like me on a fixed income, you can split that cost with someone. I just use the coconut shreds and water. I know people think it has to be hot or warm. It doesn't. Cold is 100% fine. I also don't waste money on a nutbag. I tell everyone to go to Lowe's or Home Depot and buy a PAINT STRAINER for a couple of bucks. I had a few people push back on that because "the material is toxic".. it isn't folks. You can wash the strainer in bleach, castille soap, or some other natural cleansing product and call it a day.
Many of us are hurting financially and there ARE ways to save. The coconut milk is great for a variety of reasons but the fat content itself is amazing. It lasts 7-10 days (tops) in the fridge..... and you save a TON of money doing it yourself!
Thank you for sharing this!! The recipe I used said to warm it, now I know I don't need to. I agree there are ways to save!!
@@sandysteinbrook I was told the exact same thing so after doing it WARM for about 8 years, I tried it with just regular cold water..and it really does work! And it saves me time! :))
I do the same thing. You can stretch your coconut by replacing 1\3 coconut with raw quick oats. I actually prefer it to 100 percent coconut.
Oh! Never thought of that!!!

Hi Sandy, why do you heat it? I live in the Caribbean and making coconut milk is a way of life here and I have never heard of doing that. I’m just interested in knowing. Thank you
I only do it because that is what the recipe said to do. Lol. Please share your way of doing it because I am sure the way you do it is the way I need to from now on!! Do you just blend and strain off the coconut? Any tips you share will be appreciated. Also, do you use the amounts I did?? 4 cups of water and 1 1/2 cups of coconut? THANK YOU!
Great thanks ❤. What do you do with the strained coconut?
I threw it away. Im not sure what else I would have done with it. I like the taste of coconut, but can't stand the texture of shredded coconut in food.
