Any day that starts with cappuccino is a good day. This recipe is made with mild and creamy homemade cashew milk and a home cappuccino machine. The key to making a great cashew milk cappuccino is to make sure you don't overheat the cashew milk.
I love cappuccino for breakfast with a toasted slice of gluten-free pecan raisin bread.

I do have trouble foaming my cashew milk. Have you got any tips for me?
Thank you.

This is something that I have only discovered recently, If you use a french press to froth your milk it comes out perfectly. Just heat the milk up to the ideal temp. and then just plunge(r?)the milk a few times!

That’s a great tip, Nina! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Sweetner of choice, I am not using sugar or imitation so would honey work best?
Lisa
Either honey or maple syrup would work, Patty.
