Ingredients
- Dairy-free milk is what this recipe is all about. Well, that and treats.
- Coconut sugar adds a different type of sweet flavor in a very understated way.
- Dairy-free butter adds depth to the flavor.
- Vanilla extract adds so much flavor to the final product.
Instructions
- This recipe will give you a 14 ounce 'can' of vegan sweetened condensed milk when it is all done.
- Do watch it though because you may think your old crockpot cooks just fine but they really do lose wattage over the years. You'll think you're cooking on high but you're not.
- Add the non-dairy milk, butter, and coconut sugar to the crockpot.
- Stir well.
- Do NOT cover because it has to cook down to become condensed.
- Stir about every 30 minutes, just for checking.
- Cook on high for 1 ½ hours.
- Add vanilla and stir.
- Pour in a measuring cup to make sure you have the right measurement.
- I say to do this because some slow cookers might cook a little bit hotter.
- If it has condensed too much you can add a little bit more almond milk to get the measurement correct.
Double or triple this recipe and you can take advantage of more than one of your baking recipes that have sweetened condensed milk as one of the ingredients.
It will keep about 2 weeks in your refrigerator and freezes very well.
