Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup powdered sweetener (such as allulose or monk fruit)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and pour in the heavy cream. Bring it to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
  2. Step 2: Reduce the heat to low, then add the butter and powdered sweetener. Stir until the butter is melted and the sweetener is fully dissolved.
  3. Step 3: Continue simmering for 15–20 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture reduces by about half and thickens to a creamy consistency.
  4. Step 4: Remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. Transfer to a clean jar and store in the refrigerator.

Tips & Variations

  • Use allulose or monk fruit powder for a clean sweetener taste without aftertaste.
  • Stir constantly during simmering to prevent burning and ensure smooth texture.
  • For a vanilla flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract after removing from heat.

Storage

Store your keto condensed milk in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently by warming it in a saucepan over low heat or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring to restore creaminess.
