Banana Milk

If you need an AIP coconut milk substitute, this alternative works well in many situations. This banana milk takes a minute to make and tastes great! (Also Paleo and Whole30).

There really aren't a ton of options for milk on the AIP Diet.

The nut and seed milks that you can have on Paleo are out. So it pretty much leaves coconut milk, tigernut milk, and sweet potato milk.

But if you're sensitive to coconut milk – or don't want more coconut (let's face it, there's a LOT of coconut products on AIP), then that usually leaves tigernut milk and sweet potato milk. But those milks can be more labor intesnive and require some foresight to make. 

Enter banana milk.

This is a coconut-free, tigernut-free AIP milk substitute that only requires 2 ingredients – a banana and some water – and can be blended up in less than a minute.

And yes, you can use a food processor if you don't have a blender

Prep Time 1 minute
Total Time 1 minute

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Banana
  • 1 to 2 cups Water
  • 1 Date or 1 tsp Maple Syrup (to sweeten (omit for Whole30))
  • 1 pinch Cinnamon (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Simply blend the banana with the desired amount of water and any desired flavor elements. 1 cup of water will make a creamy, very banana-tasting drink, 2 cups will be a little less creamy and banana-y. 

Notes

Unfortunately this milk doesn't last very long once you make it, so I'd say make it immediately before serving.
