Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Powdered erythritol (or any powdered keto-friendly sweetener)
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is fully melted, add the powdered erythritol to the pan. Stir constantly until the sweetener begins to dissolve, about 2 minutes.
Slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream, stirring as you add. The mixture may bubble and sizzle — this is normal.
Turn the heat down to low and allow the mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes. The sauce should thicken and develop a golden-brown caramel color.
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing well to combine.
Remove the pan from heat and let the caramel sauce cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Transfer the caramel sauce to a jar or airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Reheat gently before using if it becomes too thick.
