**Homemade Condensed Milk with 3 Ingredients: A Sugar-Free Healthy Recipe**
In this article, we’ll guide you through making your own **sugar-free condensed milk** that’s not only a healthier alternative but also incredibly simple and versatile. Whether you’re on a low-carb diet, watching your sugar intake, or just want a cleaner version of condensed milk, this recipe is a game-changer.
### Why Make Your Own Condensed Milk?
Here are a few reasons to make your own condensed milk:
– **No refined sugar**: Traditional condensed milk is loaded with sugar, which can spike blood sugar levels. Our recipe uses a natural, low-carb sweetener, making it suitable for those following a keto or low-carb diet.
– **Fewer additives**: By making it at home, you avoid the preservatives and unnecessary additives found in many store-bought versions.
– **Customizable**: You can adjust the sweetness level and make it vegan or dairy-free by swapping the milk for plant-based alternatives.
### Ingredients for Sugar-Free Homemade Condensed Milk
– **1 cup unsweetened almond milk** (or any plant-based milk of your choice, like coconut milk or cashew milk)
– **1/2 cup powdered erythritol** (or another sugar-free sweetener of your choice, like stevia or monk fruit)
– **1/4 cup butter** (or coconut oil for a dairy-free version)
#### 1. **Heat the Milk**
Start by pouring the **unsweetened almond milk** (or your chosen milk alternative) into a medium saucepan. Place the saucepan over **medium heat** and bring the milk to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from burning.
#### 3. **Add the Butter**
Next, add **butter** (or coconut oil for a dairy-free version) to the saucepan. The butter will add creaminess to the condensed milk, helping to create that thick, rich consistency that is characteristic of condensed milk. Stir until the butter is completely melted and combined with the milk.
#### 4. **Simmer and Reduce**
Now, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently. Stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Allow the mixture to reduce for about **15-20 minutes**, or until it thickens to a condensed milk-like consistency. Keep in mind that it will thicken further as it cools.
5. **Cool and Store**
Once the mixture has thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat. Let it cool to room temperature, and it will continue to thicken as it cools. Transfer your homemade condensed milk into an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to **2 weeks**.
