Here’s a simple and creamy Sugar-Free Condensed Milk recipe — perfect for keto, diabetic-friendly, or low-sugar desserts like fudge, no-bake pies, or coffee creamer. It tastes remarkably close to the classic version!
🥛 Sugar-Free Condensed Milk (Low-Carb / Keto Friendly)
🔸 Ingredients (Makes ~1¼ cups)
-
2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
-
⅓ cup powdered erythritol or allulose (adjust to taste)
-
2 tbsp unsalted butter
-
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
-
Pinch of salt
🔹 Instructions
-
Combine ingredients
In a medium saucepan, add heavy cream, sweetener, butter, and a pinch of salt. -
Simmer gently
Heat over medium-low and stir occasionally until the butter melts and sweetener dissolves. -
Cook down
Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer uncovered for 30–40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reduces by about half and thickens slightly. It will thicken more as it cools. -
Finish it
Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract (if using). Let cool completely. -
Store
Pour into a glass jar and refrigerate. It will keep for up to 1 week. Stir or gently reheat to loosen before using.
✅ Notes:
-
Allulose works best for smooth texture (no graininess) and doesn’t recrystallize.
-
You can use a mix of erythritol and stevia/monk fruit for better sweetness balance.
-
For a dairy-free version: use full-fat canned coconut milk in place of cream and coconut oil or vegan butter.
