How To: Make Vanilla, Almond, and Coconut Extracts
Welcome to Our Okie Dokie Life today we will show you how to make your own vanilla, almond, and coconut extracts! These extracts are a great way to add unique flavors to your cooking and baking, and they're easy to make at home.
To make vanilla extract, you'll need:
1 cup of vodka or other high-proof alcohol
3-4 vanilla beans
To start, cut the vanilla beans lengthwise to expose the seeds inside. Place the beans in a clean jar or bottle, and pour the vodka over them. Make sure the beans are fully covered by the liquid. Give the bottle a good shake, and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 4-6 weeks. The longer you let it sit, the stronger the flavor will be. Shake the bottle occasionally during this time to help distribute the flavor.
To make almond extract, you'll need:
1 cup of vodka or other high-proof alcohol
1 cup of raw almonds, chopped or sliced
If using whole almonds chop or slice them, then place them in a clean jar or bottle. Pour the vodka over the almonds, making sure they're fully covered by the liquid. Give the bottle a good shake, and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 2-3 weeks. Shake the bottle occasionally during this time to help distribute the flavor.
To make coconut extract, you'll need:
1 cup of vodka or other high-proof alcohol
1 cup of unsweetened shredded coconut
Place the shredded coconut in a clean jar or bottle. Pour the vodka over the coconut, making sure it's fully covered by the liquid. Give the bottle a good shake, and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 2-3 weeks. Shake the bottle occasionally during this time to help distribute the flavor.
And there you have it! Homemade vanilla, almond, and coconut extracts that you can use in all sorts of recipes. Enjoy!
