Recipe #2 - Two-Hour Sugar-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk
Author: 
Serves: 1⅓ cup
 
Ingredients
  • 3 cups milk (almond, coconut, half and half, etc.—I use half almond and half ½ and ½)
  • 1 cup Pyure* (or Gentle Sweet or Homemade Pyure, or other stevia-blend)*Or use 2 cups of cup-for-cup sugar sub
  • 2 TBSP butter
  • 2 tsps vanilla extract (not imitation)
Instructions
  1. Combine milk and sweetener in a medium saucepan on medium heat.
  2. Bring to a boil, whisking continually.
  3. Reduce and slowly cook on the lowest temperature until you have approximately 1⅓ cup. This may take two hours or more. Stir often, but not continually.
  4. When milk is reduced by half (resulting in approximately 1⅓ cup), remove from heat and whisk in butter and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour into a clean glass jar and allow to cool. Store in the refrigerator or use immediately. Mixture will thicken more after being refrigerated, so I like to chill then use later.
  6. This was thinner than sugar-filled, store-bought sweetened condensed milk (though it does thicken in the refrigerator more). I’ve toyed with the idea of sprinkling a ½ teaspoon gluccomannan over it and whisking quickly and/or loosening a half a bar of cream cheese (or more) in microwave or stove top and whisking it into the mixture.
