4 Substitutes for Oat Milk in Porridge with Berry Compote
1. Soy milk
Ratio: 1:1
The highest-protein option - the best substitute for baking and savoury sauces.
2. Almond milk (unsweetened)
Ratio: 1:1
Thinner and nuttier - works in coffee and porridge; less ideal in cream sauces where body matters.
3. Cashew milk
Ratio: 1:1
Creamier than almond milk with a neutral flavour - a good all-rounder.
4. Rice milk
Ratio: 1:1
Naturally sweet and very thin - best in sweet applications; not ideal in savoury.
