Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/3 cup powdered sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit, or stevia blend)
Instructions
- Heat the Cream:
Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and pour in the heavy cream. Bring it to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. - Add Butter and Sweetener:
Once the cream starts to boil, reduce the heat to low. Add the unsalted butter and powdered sweetener. Stir well until the butter has fully melted and the sweetener has dissolved. - Simmer and Thicken:
Let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring constantly. The cream will reduce by half and thicken. Be sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn. - Cool and Store:
Remove the pan from the heat and let the condensed milk cool for a few minutes. Once cooled, transfer it to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate. It will thicken further as it cools. - Serve:
After cooling, your homemade Keto Condensed Milk is ready to use in keto desserts, coffee, or as a topping for your favorite treats. Store it in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
- Storage: This Keto Condensed Milk can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
- Sweetener Options: You can use any powdered sweetener that you prefer, such as erythritol, monk fruit, or stevia blends. Adjust the amount based on your sweetness preference.
- Consistency: The mixture will thicken as it cools. If you want it thicker, you can simmer it a little longer, but be careful not to over-reduce it.
- Dairy-Free Option: For a dairy-free version, you can replace the heavy cream with full-fat coconut cream and the butter with coconut oil.
