Sunflower coconut milk with honey, cinnamon and vanilla FAQ:

What is the best way to store leftover sunflower coconut milk?

Store leftover sunflower coconut milk in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Shake well before using, as natural separation may occur.

Can I use a different sweetener instead of honey?

Yes, you can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option. Adjust the amount to taste, as these sweeteners may differ in sweetness compared to honey.

How can I make this recipe creamier?

To make the sunflower coconut milk creamier, try using full-fat coconut milk instead of light coconut milk. You can also add more sunflower seeds to enhance both the creaminess and flavor.

What blender speed and time should I use to blend the mixture?

Blend the mixture on high speed for about 2-3 minutes until smooth and creamy. Make sure to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure even mixing.

Is it necessary to strain the mixture after blending?

Straining is optional. If you prefer a smoother milk without any bits of sunflower seeds, you can strain it through a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve. If you don't mind the texture, you can skip this step.

Cooking Tips:

- Soak the sunflower seeds in water for a few hours or overnight to make them easier to blend and enhance their creaminess.

- For a smoother texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth after blending.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey, according to your taste preference.

- Experiment by adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom for an extra layer of flavor.

- Store any leftover milk in the refrigerator and consume within 3-4 days for the best taste and freshness.
