Slow Cooker Sweetened Condensed Milk is as easy as it sounds. Excellent in all baking goods calling for the traditional thick rich sweetener.

Slow Cooker Sweetened Condensed Milk is as easy as 1-2-3 and it’s excellent in all recipes calling for this traditionally rich canned creamer.

There are so many old fashioned recipes that I don’t want to loose.  Ones that call for sweetened condensed milk.

Great memories are associated with these recipes and I was determined to be able to have them again.  Well, now there is a perfect dairy free substitute.

I had to hurry up and get this recipe on because we are in the throes of baking season and I refuse to miss another holiday without making my sister’s especially fantastic chocolate fudge.  It makes me taste buds zing.

The recipe calls for sweetened condensed milk and I thought I would have to forego that little chocolate pleasure for the rest of my life.  No more!

This recipe only has 4 ingredients and is cooked in the crockpot so you don’t even have to watch it.

Dive right into the recipe and be prepared for the future baking day. It is so simple and rewarding.  No sweet needs be ignored again.

I just posted a Dairy Free Evaporated Milk about a week or two ago and I was going to do a close follow-up post with this recipe.  Well, time sure flies.  Not too late though so lets get making goodies!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. I have come up with the timing and measurements that will give you a 14 ounce 'can' when it is all done.
  2. Add the non-dairy milk, butter and coconut sugar to the crock pot.
  3. Stir well.
  4. Do NOT cover because it has to cook down to become condensed.
  5. Stir about every 30 minutes, just for checking..
  6. Cook on high for 1 1/2 hours.
  7. Add vanilla and stir.
  8. Pour in a measuring cup to make sure you have the right measurement.
  9. I say to do this because some slow cookers might cook a little bit hotter.

  10. If it has condensed too much you can add a little bit more almond milk to get the measurement correct.

Recipe Notes

This can easily be doubled if you need more than one 'can'. It will keep about 2 weeks in your refrigerator and freezes very well.

  3. Wow, I never thought of that. Yes, there are many brands now. I suppose some must turn the color more than others. Darn! I need to make it again with a store brand and see what happens. Do you remember the one you used? It shouldn’t matter unless you want your dessert to be a light color. It will work with organic granulated sugar too. I’ll do that one again and compare.

  4. Hi,

    Just wondering if you used a different type of coconut sugar? I just put the ingredients in the crock pot & the colour is almost caramel brown because of the coconut sugar, whereas yours looks white.

  5. I’m sure you can Sandra. You’d have to stand over it though (watch it closely) because it will cook away much more quickly than in a closed crockpt and would burn more easily.

  7. Hi Sammie, not old at all 🙂 No, it doesn’t have to be coconut sugar. Granulated sugar will work. My problem is I don’t know if the measurement should be cut back at all. White sugar is so much sweeter. How about – measure 1/2 cup and then scoop 1 tablespoon out of the measurement. Try that. Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

  8. I know this is super old, but does it have to be coconut sugar? I don’t have a whole lot to spare and that kinda stuff is more expensive than regular sugar..

    Will probably look it up as well, but thought it’d be best to ask the recipe creator.

  10. Can I make this with coconut oil instead of a butter substitute? I need it to be soy free as well as dairy free.

  11. Hi Kristina! Yes, you can use almond or rice milk. I am not sure how rice milk would taste but almond would be good. I would check every 1/2 hour until it is the thickness you want. It sounds like you need a larger quantity so I might double the ingredients so that is does not cook away over the longer period of time. What is the finished measurement that you need for the recipe? Do you need it twice as thick as a can of condensed milk?

  12. Hello Ginny, I’ve been looking for a vegan recipe for sweetened condensed milk, since this recipe is non-dairy, would I be able to make it with Almond or Rice milk instead? I make a Peruvian cookies called Alfajores and the filling is a very thickened caramel that I make from the regular sweet condensed milk by boiling the cans for 3 hours. I would like to be able to make them gluten free/vegan friendly for some of my friends. I never thought of using a crock pot, and you mentioned that it could get real thick…which is great, that is what I need. Once in the crock pot would I need to stir it or just let it cook for perhaps 2 hours and check the thickness? I would appreciate any feedback.

  17. I must be missing something – I can’t find the recipe. I click on the recipe link and it just pulls up a blank page to print. I MUST have this recipe!

  19. Would other vegan milk substitutes work as well? We have a nut allergy and I’d like to try coconut milk. Thanks!

  20. I love the idea of using the crock pot to reduce the recipe for non-dairy sweetened condensed milk. Does this method allow for the mixture to thicken? Also, when doubling the recipe is the timing lengthened? Thank you for your help!

  21. I just saw this. West coast. So sorry – I fixed the instructions. It is okay if you went ahead and added the vanilla at the beginning but I stir it in at the end. Some of the flavor cooks out of the vanilla (alcohol) that is why it is always added last.

  22. Unless I’m reading the instructions wrong for the recipe, I don’t see when you add the vegan butter and vanilla. Put it all in the crock pot at once? Or add after it’s already thickened? I’ve got my milk and sugar sitting in the crock pot already and running out of time this morning to do this, but guess I’d better just try adding at all once for now. Hoping you will clarify. Thanks!

  27. I swear I tell you this every single time I comment but I totally just passed this recipe onto my little brother. He and his wife are vegan and love your site 🙂

  41. I am SO excited you have posted this easy recipe for vegan condensed milk. A couple of years ago I made condensed “milk” using a different method it turned out good but was super work intensive. Love how easy this is. Thank you so much!

  44. Hi:
    Thanks for this great recipe. Just wondering, which canned coconut milk do you like/use? Need to order some – I’ve used Native Forest, Thai kitchen, 365 whole foods – but looking for something creamier and tastier. If it’s out there.
    Thanks for your help

  45. I was just talking about sweetened condensed milk desserts with a friend the other day. She’s vegan and was bummed that she had to miss out on those desserts. I’m emailing this link to her right now!
