Ingredients
- 1 cup Soybeans
- 6 cups Water
- 3 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the soybeans thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities.
Step 2
Place the soybeans in a large bowl and cover them with at least three inches of water. Allow the soybeans to soak for 8-12 hours or overnight until they expand and soften.
Step 3
Drain the soaked soybeans and rinse them under cold water again.
Step 4
Transfer the soybeans to a blender and add 4 cups of fresh water. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Step 5
Strain the mixture through a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth into a large pot. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Discard the remaining soybean pulp or save it for another use (like baking or adding to smoothies).
Step 6
Add an additional 2 cups of water to the strained liquid in the pot.
Step 7
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the soymilk to a gentle simmer, stirring often to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
Step 8
Simmer the soymilk for 20 minutes, continuing to stir occasionally and skimming off any foam that forms on the surface.
Step 9
Remove the pot from the heat and allow the soymilk to cool slightly. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, adjusting sweetness to taste.
Step 10
Strain the soymilk one more time if desired for an ultra-smooth texture.
Step 11
Transfer the maple vanilla soymilk to a clean glass container or bottle and refrigerate. It will keep for up to 4-5 days.
Step 12
Shake well before serving. Enjoy fresh over cereal, coffee, or simply as a refreshing drink!
