The Easiest (Delicious Vegan) Caramel Sauce
This caramel sauce is quick, easy, and paleo by using coconut sugar as the sweetener. It can also be made vegan with coconut milk.
Print Recipe
Equipment
- Medium saucepan
Ingredients
- ¼ c coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp water
- ½ cup full fat coconut milk I use Trader Joe's brand or Thai Organic
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Pinch of salt I prefer kosher salt for a more "clean" taste
Instructions
- Add the water and coconut sugar to a medium saucepan, and bring to a light boil, stirring often.
- Add the coconut milk, vanilla, and salt. Cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat, again stirring frequently to prevent burning (sometimes it takes up to 30 minutes to thicken depending on your type of burner. It WILL thicken up though!). You'll notice a change in color and consistency. When it starts to thicken and darken in color, the caramel is done.
- Pour into a jar or airtight container and let cool. Enjoy!
