The home made oat milk has a very mild oatmeal flavor. If you want you can add a small amount of vanilla extract to the oatmeal milk to enhance its flavor. (Add a drop at a time to the milk you made and taste before deciding if you need another drop or two). If you want thicker oat milk you can blend in a ripe banana. The banana will give the milk a thick, non-watery texture and banana flavor. Adding both banana and vanilla makes a really delicious milk.
When I make oatmeal milk I soak 1 cup water with 1 cup old fashioned oatmeal. Then I blend and sieve for a smooth milk. This is thick so I add water to thin it out for the purpose I will use the milk. Most recipes call for 4 cups water and 1 cup oatmeal. If I want a very watery oat milk I add 3 more cups of water. Making oat milk my way you can choose how thick you want it for your cereal.
You can also make banana milk blending a banana with water. Add as much water as you want to achieve the texture you want. I believe there’s a recipe on this forum to make banana milk.
