Ingredients
- 5 pieces plain rice cakes
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, combine coconut sugar and coconut milk. Stir continuously until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Step 2
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and becomes dark amber in color.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the vanilla extract, sea salt, and coconut oil. Stir until the coconut oil is fully melted and incorporated into the caramel.
Step 4
Let the caramel cool slightly, but not so much that it begins to harden. It should be warm and fluid.
Step 5
Place the rice cakes on a flat surface or baking sheet. Use a spoon to drizzle or spread the warm caramel over each rice cake.
Step 6
Optionally, sprinkle chopped nuts on top of the caramel-covered rice cakes for added texture and flavor.
Step 7
Allow the caramel to set for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your dairy-free caramel rice cakes!
