🥛 Homemade Sugar-Free Condensed Milk
🧂 Ingredients:
-
2 cups (480ml) unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk)
-
1/2 cup powdered erythritol, allulose, monk fruit, or a blend (adjust to taste)
-
2 tbsp unsalted butter
-
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
-
Pinch of salt
🥣 Instructions:
-
Simmer the milk:
-
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine almond milk and sweetener.
-
Bring to a simmer (do not boil), stirring often.
-
-
Reduce:
-
Let it simmer gently for 30–45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reduces by about half and thickens slightly.
-
-
Finish:
-
Stir in butter, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
-
Let cool — it will thicken more as it cools.
-
🧊 Storage:
-
Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 1 week.
-
Shake or stir before using (it may separate slightly when cold).
🔁 Tips:
-
Allulose yields the smoothest, least gritty result (doesn’t recrystallize).
-
Coconut milk (full-fat) works great for a thicker, creamier version.
-
Use in keto fudge, sugar-free pies, iced coffee, or low-carb caramel.
