Sugar Free Condensed Milk

Ingredients needed

  • Heavy cream. Let it sit at room temperature before using it. Heavy whipping cream also works. Avoid low-fat substitutions, as you need that fat content to develop the right consistency. 
  • Butter. I suggest using unsalted and softened butter. 
  • Powder sweeteners. I prefer using powdered allulose, though any sugar-free sweetener can technically work. 
  • Vanilla extract. Optional, but I like the subtle vanilla flavor it adds.

Step 1- Combine ingredients. Add all of the ingredients into a small saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2- Simmer. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring regularly. Once simmering, reduce the heat to very low and continue simmering for 45 minutes. 

Step 3- Store. Remove from the heat and allow it to cool down completely. Once cool, transfer to a mason jar and refrigerate.

Arman’s recipe tips

  • Dairy-free. Use full fat canned coconut milk (or coconut cream) and dairy-free butter. 
  • Stir often. So the bottom of the pan doesn’t scorch. 
  • Turn it into caramel sauce. Let it simmer for an hour or until it takes on a golden caramel color. 
  • Be patient. The mixture will thicken up quite a bit as it cools, so don’t fret if it’s liquidy when you remove it from the stovetop.

Storage instructions

To store: Store leftover condensed milk in an airtight container or glass jar and keep it in the refrigerator for up to one month. 

To freeze: Place the cooled milk in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to six months. Let it thaw overnight in the fridge.

Instructions 

  • Add the heavy cream, butter, allulose, and vanilla into a small saucepan.
  • Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil. Stir regularly, until it begins to simmer. Once it begins to simmer, reduce the heat to very low. Let the condensed milk simmer for around 45 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and allow it to cool down completely. Once cool, transfer to a glass jar or container and refrigerate.

Notes

* I like using powdered allulose or standard allulose, but most sweeteners should work. 

One serving is a heaping 1/4 cup. 

TO STORE: Leftover condensed milk should always be stored in the refrigerator, to avoid any spoilage. It will keep well, covered, for up to 4 weeks. Before using it, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, for it to loosen up. 

TO FREEZE: Place the condensed milk in a sealable container, and store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
