- Soak oats in enough cool water to cover them. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
- Drain the oats using a sieve. Combine oats, 700ml of water and dates in a large bowl. Allow to sit undisturbed until skin on the dates softens, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Transfer oat mixture to a blender. Pulse the mixture a few times and then leave on medium-high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Drain 'milk' through muslin cloth to remove all solids. Serve cold or warm.
