Probably because the recipe says "cream of almonds" *or* "of cow milk".
> Take cream of almonds, or of cow milk...
And in this case the redactor apparently chose the latter. Master 
Cariadoc, since I believe this redaction is yours, would you have any 
comments?

However, rather than almond milk I'm wondering if this really does mean 
almond cream as we discussed recently. See this file for some of the 
commentary on this.
