Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.333 cup Granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol or allulose)
- 2 tablespoons Butter-flavored coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water until smooth to create a slurry. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the almond milk, sugar substitute, and butter-flavored coconut oil.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk continuously until the sugar substitute dissolves and the mixture begins to steam (do not boil).
Step 4
Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry and continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 5-7 minutes or until the mixture thickens to a caramel-like consistency.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Step 6
Let the caramel sauce cool for 5-10 minutes. It will continue to thicken slightly as it cools.
Step 7
Use immediately, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one week. Reheat gently before serving if needed.
