Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Espresso coffee beans
- 1 cup Oat milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Sugar (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat the water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches boiling point.
Step 2
While the water is heating, grind the espresso coffee beans to a fine consistency, suitable for making espresso.
Step 3
Prepare the espresso using an espresso machine or an espresso pot. Place 2 tablespoons of ground espresso beans into the machine or pot, and brew with 1 cup of hot water. This should yield roughly 1 shot (about 1 ounce) of espresso.
Step 4
While the espresso is brewing, pour the oat milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching, until the milk is hot but not boiling. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Step 5
Once the oat milk is heated, froth it using a milk frother. If you don't have a frother, you can use a whisk vigorously, or pour the milk into a jar, seal it tightly, and shake until frothy.
Step 6
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into a cappuccino cup.
Step 7
Add sugar to the espresso, if preferred, and stir until dissolved.
Step 8
Gently pour the frothy oat milk over the espresso. The foam should sit at the top, creating the characteristic layers of a cappuccino.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade oat milk cappuccino.
