What it is

Oatmilk is a plant-based milk alternative made from oats and water. The oats are typically soaked, blended with water, and then strained to create a liquid that resembles dairy milk. It is often fortified with vitamins and minerals.

Why it's used

Oatmilk is used as a dairy-free alternative in a variety of frozen desserts, including ice cream and frozen yogurt. It provides a creamy texture and a mild, slightly sweet flavor, acting as a base for these products.

Health notes

Oatmilk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and can be fortified with calcium and vitamin D. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated oat-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming oatmilk at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Oatmilk is not derived from one of the nine FDA major allergens. Oats themselves can be a source of gluten, but most oat products sold in the US are certified gluten-free.
