| 1/2 | cup | almonds | |
| 1 | tablespoon | maple syrup | |
| 2 | cups | water |
Use raw almonds.
Place almonds in blender and grind to fine powder. Add syrup and 1 c water. Blend 1-2 minutes until smooth. With blender running on high, slowly add remaining water. Blend 2 minutes.
Place strainer over large bowl. Line with cheesecloth (not 100%
neccessary, but recommended. Otherwise strain twice with very fine strainer.) Pour almond milk slowly into strainer and let filter through. When all milk has passed through strainer, press remaining milk out of accumulated almond fiber.
Each serving will be approximately 1-1/4 cups.
Milk will keep in fridge 4-5 days.
Leftover fiber can be used as moisturizing body scrub in the shower.

Turned out very good. I was worried how they would turn out considering that there was absolutely no butter or oil in the recipe at all! They didn't rise as much as more traditional recipes but turned out great with a lovely rustic home-made appearance. Not too sweet, lots of chunks of apple and cranberries, bursts of sweet vs. sour. The texture was slightly like a sponge cake. I would recommend filling the muffin cup from 2/3 up to full.
