Nut Milks

Almond, cashew, and hazelnut milk are examples of nut milk. They are created by crushing nuts with water and filtering the resulting milk-like beverage. They are low in calories and protein, which might be good if you want to cut back on your calorie consumption. 1 cup (240 mL) of almond milk, for example, has 39 calories, 1.5 grams of carbohydrates, 2.8 grams of fat, and 1.5 grams of protein. This is nearly a sixth of the calories in evaporated milk.

Almond milk also includes calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin E. However, evaporated milk provides higher calcium, delivering 66% of the RDI versus almond milk's 52%. Almond milk is best for desserts, whilst cashew milk may be used in both sweet and savory meals. Heat nut milk to lower the water content, just like ordinary milk. This produces an evaporated milk replacement, albeit it will not be as thick as actual evaporated milk. These milk are not suited for anyone who is allergic to nuts.
