sweetened condensed milk vegan

By andreajayros

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups non-dairy milk (I used homemade coconut milk)
• 1/2 cup sweetener (I used this coconut sugar and this evaporated cane juice)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Combine milk and sweetener in a medium saucepan. Whisk to dissolve sweetener over medium heat.
When the milk begins to steam, lower the temperature to as low as possible.
Dip a straw into the milk and use a permanent marker to draw a line on the straw, just above where the milk hit.
Allow milk to reduce to half in size from what it first was, periodically checking with the straw and stirring. This took approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes for me.
When milk is reduced by half, remove from heat and whisk in vanilla extract.
Pour into a clean glass jar and allow to cool. Store in the refrigerator.
