Planet Oat Extra Creamy Original Oatmilk

Overview

Pouring a glass or whisking into pancake batter and soups is how this thicker oat milk is meant to be used. It is made from oats and aims for more body than the brand's standard original oatmilk.

Extra body helps in coffee and cooking where thin plant milks fall flat, and the description says it fluffs pancakes and thickens soups. The free-from list is broad. The limitation is the large carton and the fact that the listing gives no sugar or calorie figures.

Who it's for

Morning coffee, pancake batter and creamy soups all use this oat milk. Households avoiding dairy, lactose, gluten, soy or nuts are covered by the free-from list. Anyone wanting a light, thin milk or a sweet flavored milk should choose the original.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Added body comes from the oat base, which thickens soups and sauces and gives batters a fluffier crumb, per the description. In coffee it adds a rounder mouthfeel than thin milks. No added sweetness leaves savory use open.
