Sugar-Free Condensed Milk (3 Ingredients)
This homemade Sugar-Free Condensed Milk is a healthier alternative to traditional sweetened condensed milk. Made with just three ingredients, it’s easy to prepare and perfect for low-carb and sugar-free desserts.
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream (or full-fat coconut milk for a dairy-free version)
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your preferred sugar-free sweetener)
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients:
- In a medium saucepan, add the heavy cream, powdered erythritol, and butter. Stir to combine.
- Heat and Simmer:
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it gently simmer for 30–40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces by half and thickens. The consistency should resemble traditional condensed milk.
- Cool:
- Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the condensed milk to cool completely. As it cools, it will thicken further.
- Store:
- Transfer the condensed milk to an airtight container or jar. Refrigerate for up to 1 week.
Tips
- Sweetness Adjustment: Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sweetener to suit your taste.
- Use in Recipes: This sugar-free condensed milk works perfectly in desserts like pies, fudge, or as a coffee sweetener.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut milk and vegan butter for a dairy-free version.
