Coconut Milk Caramel Recipe

Welcome to the best dairy free caramel sauce you’ll ever make! Not as rich as your typical caramel sauce since it is made entirely with coconut milk, this Coconut Caramel still tastes delicious with that deep caramelized flavor and a hint of tropical coconut.

📝 Ingredients

• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoon corn syrup
• 2 tablespoon water
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (or just the top cream)
• 1/4 teaspoon fine salt

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Caramelize the sugar - Add granulated sugar, corn syrup and water to a heavy bottom stainless steel pan. Heat the mixture over medium heat without stirring. You can swirl the pan occasionally to ensure all the sugar melts and heats evenly. When the liquid turns amber, take it off the heat. This could take around 10-15 minutes, more or less, depending on the strength of your burner.
2. 2Add the coconut milk - Once you take the caramel off the heat, immediately add the coconut milk and whisk to combine. The mixture will bubble rapidly as the cool coconut milk combines with the hot caramel. Keep whisking until smooth.
3. 3Stir in salt - Sprinkle in the fine salt and stir to incorporate.
4. 4Cool - Transfer warm caramel to a heat proof jar for storage and allow it to cool. Caramel will thicken further as it cools.
