Good day, loves! Today, I am sharing with you a recipe that will save your life if you don't eat DAIRY. Whatever the reason - food allergy, nursing momma, health choice, taste preference - some of us cool peeps just can't eat dairy. I have a food intolerance to dairy, so I can cheat sometimes, but really I should be "eating good" and sticking to my non-dairy diet. The recipe I have for you today is for Dairy Free Sweetened Condensed Milk. As a once-dairy-eater turned non-dairy-eater, I know that sweetened condensed milk is in SO MANY delicious, divine desserts. Up until this past week, I passed on them ALL, but now I can make any of them! This recipe definitely needs to go in your back pocket, because a whole new world of desserts has just been opened up to you. You're welcome. ;) Best part of all? There are only TWO ingredients. Goodbye canned sugary milk - hello sweet, velvety, silky goodness.

ReplyDeleteGreat idea! My husband doesn't eat dairy, and the rest of us try to limit it. This is a fabulous substitute! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! It's a good one to have on hand. xo
ReplyDeleteIt can be hard when one family member has a special diet. I don't eat dairy and my husband eats low carb, so it's always an adventure when dinner time comes around. I'm happy there are so many websites to find great recipes, though!
ReplyDeleteI wish I saw this last night. My daughter wanted to make truffles with condensed milk and I have these ingredients. Definitely pinning. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteInstead of reducing for so long, can't you put the can of coconut milk in the fridge overnight then just pour off the coconut water (and drink it!) leaving the fat all solidified at the top?
ReplyDeleteMmmmm truffles sound delish. I am so excited to try out all the recipes I've been missing out on, too. Hopefully your daughter can make some now. Thanks for pinning! xo
ReplyDeleteThat does sound yummy - coconut water! But you need the entire can. It isn't supposed to be solidified. Even though the liquid reduces, it doesn't reduce to the thickness of the coconut fat. You need it more like the consistency of a regular can of sweetened condensed milk, so that it can soak into the graham cracker crumbs to help hold it together. Does that make sense? Ha ha, hopefully. But if you try it that way and it works, let me know! xo
ReplyDeleteI wanted to invite you to linkup for the Let's Get Real Blog Hop tomorrow at 5PM EST. I'm the new weekly co-host. mypinterventures.com
ReplyDeleteHow cool! So much better when you can make things yourself. Pinning this. Thanks for sharing at All Things Pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks - i do not eat any dairy and this is a great substitution.
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for things to use in my coffee other than the fake flavored stuff, I will try this next!
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing! I'm so glad you found a way to make your own. Thanks
ReplyDeletefor linking up with the Tasty Tuesday's Link-up. I have pinned your
post to the Tasty's Tuesday's Pinterest Board and to my dairy free board (for a few weeks I went dairy free to see if it helped with my girls allergies.)
Hi Emily! I would love to know if you like this recipe. I've only used it for my Dairy Free Magic Cookie Bars, but as a sweetener for anything, I'm sure it's great. With that hint of coconut - it is seriously delish. Hope you have a great week! xo
ReplyDeleteDairy free can be hard, but fortunately there are so many alternatives these days, I don't really miss too many dairy free things {except Frosty's and peanut butter m&m's!}. Thanks for pinning, Tammy. I love your link parties! xo
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you could make this dairy free. That is great to know. I am pinning for future reference.
ReplyDeleteI am following you on social media, dropped by from the Bloggers Brags Pinterest Party
This is so great! I just started eating dairy-free because I started feeling sick every night and this recipe will be a great addition to my growing collection. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and the follow, Tamara. I was SO happy when I made this DF, because it opens up so many of my fave desserts to now be made without dairy. Have a great night! xo
ReplyDeleteOh no - I hate being sick from dairy! Blah. Secret? I ate ravioli tonight and was sick to my stomach. But - it was worth it. :) Ha ha. But I'm glad there are dairy free alternatives so we can still eat YUMMY foods and not be sick. Take care, Hannah! xo
