Keto Sweetened Condensed Milk
A delicious homemade keto-friendly sweetened condensed milk, perfect for low-carb desserts and beverages. It's easy to make and thickens beautifully as it cools.
Equipment
- Medium Saucepan
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup monk fruit/allulose blend
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine everything *except* the vanilla extract.
- Place the pan over low heat and let it gently simmer for about 20-30 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the mixture has visibly thickened and reduced by almost half. A wider pan can speed up this process!
- Once it's thickened to your liking, remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract until it's fully blended.
- Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature. It will continue to thicken significantly as it chills!
- Once cool, store your homemade sweetened condensed milk in the fridge for 5-7 days.
- When you're ready to use it in a recipe, it might be quite firm from the fridge. Simply warm it in the microwave for 6-8 seconds, or stir in a tiny bit of hot water to get it perfectly smooth and pourable!
Notes
*Important:* Stir frequently and make sure to stay nearby, as the mixture needs attention to prevent sticking or burning. My batch was perfect at 28 minutes.
