Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 cup Granulated monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Sea salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the coconut milk, coconut oil, and granulated monk fruit sweetener.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture until the sweetener has fully dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking or burning.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens and turns a golden caramel color. The consistency should be smooth and slightly runny but will thicken more as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt.
Allow the caramel sauce to cool for 5-10 minutes before transferring it to a jar or serving dish.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before serving if it solidifies.
