Salted Caramel Sauce without cream
Easy recipe for salted caramel sauce without cream, using sugar, milk, butter and salt. This recipe can be made with plant based ingredients too.
Ingredients
- 200 grams granulated sugar light brown or white
- 100 ml plant based milk or regular milk, or plant based cream
- 50 grams plant based butter or dairy butter (plant based or regular), coconut oil or butter
- 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon for less salty flavour
Instructions
- Heat the granulated sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon.
- The sugar will form clumps and eventually melt into a thick brown, amber-colored liquid as you continue to stir.
- Once the sugar is completely melted, add the butter or the coconut oil. The mixture is going to bubble and increase in volume. Stir the butter or oil gently into the caramel until it is completely melted.
- The next job is to add the milk (or equivalent) - pour it in very slowly and watch out as the caramel sauce bubbles even more.
- Boil the caramel sauce for about 1 minute or shorter if the mixture looks like it starts to burn.
- Once done, remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Pour directly to a prepared jam jars (if making as a present) or allow to cool down before using.
