Introduction: Condensed Almond Milk
Dairy free is an option, and most of the times it is more expensive or not readily available but DIY always works.
Ingredients:
2 cups of almond milk
2/3 cups of sugar or honey as I used
1 tsp of vanilla
1 dash of salt
Step 1: Ingredients Check, Heat Milk
Ingredients:
2 cups of almond milk
2/3 cups of honey
1 tsp of vanilla
1 dash of salt
Grease a sauce pan with a brush and oil and add the milk. Heat to 120F.
Step 2: Add the Sweetener and Reduce Heat
Once the mixture is hot enough, add the sugar or alternative sweetner, vanilla, and salt and allow to boil while stirring.
Once it reaches a boil, you want to reduce the flame to a simmer, at the lowest setting.
Heat for approximately 1 hour and stirring every 15 minutes.
Let cool.
Step 3: Transfer to Jar
Transfer the mixture to a jar, and refrigerate. USE and ENJOY!

Do you find that the almond milk separates after a while?
Do you know if Stevia or Agave syrup can work as well?

There will be separation, but it depends on the type of sugar you use. Agave may mix better. I have found that Stevia is not a good replacement, and I'm assuming pure sugar crystals just have a different lattice structure to hold it together.

Did you use unsweetened almond milk? I look forward to trying this!!

I used it to make homemade Irish Cream. You can use standard milk, but this adds more flavour. I usually make a big batch and add some espresso and chocolate to it to make a rich syrup. Then to make the Irish Cream, I just add whiskey, more almond milk and some vanilla extract. It works just as well with soy too so I imagine that you could easily condense coconut milk as well.

Oh, I also it sweetened, but I'm sure you could do unsweetened as well if you're watching calories.

I actually made unsweetened almond milk, but it shouldn't make a difference in the end result...only flavor.

I wonder if coconut milk would work with this recipe? I would like to try to make key lime pie with this.
