Dairy-Free Caramel Sauce Recipe

Dairy-Free Caramel Sauce Recipe

This smooth and luscious dairy-free caramel sauce is perfect for drizzling over desserts, stirring into coffee, or using as a dip for fruit. Made with coconut milk instead of cream, it’s rich, velvety, and completely free of dairy — but still full of that deep caramel flavor you love.

Ingredients

• 1 cup full-fat coconut milk (canned)
• 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine coconut milk and brown sugar.
2. Place over medium heat, whisking until the sugar dissolves.
3. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
4. Simmer for 8–10 minutes, whisking occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
5. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt.
6. Let cool slightly before using — it will thicken more as it cools.
