Ah, making sugar-free condensed milk at home is totally doable—and with just three ingredients, it’s simple and much healthier than store-bought versions! Here’s a straightforward recipe:
Ingredients (3 only)
- Milk – 2 cups (whole milk works best for creaminess)
- Sweetener – ¼ to ⅓ cup of a sugar substitute like erythritol, stevia, monk fruit, or xylitol (adjust to taste)
- Butter – 2 tablespoons (optional but helps with richness)
Instructions
- Combine milk and sweetener in a medium saucepan.
- Simmer gently over low-medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
- Reduce the mixture by about half. This usually takes 30–40 minutes. It should thicken and take on a creamy texture.
- Stir in butter at the end for extra creaminess.
- Cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge. It should last about 1–2 weeks.
✅ Tips:
- Stir often, especially near the end, to prevent sticking.
- If you want ultra-smooth condensed milk, you can blend it briefly after cooling.
- Works perfectly in coffee, baking, or desserts.
I can also give you a vegan version with only 3 ingredients if you want a dairy-free option. Do you want me to do that?
