Did you know that you can make your own vegan condensed milk recipe? It's true and it is delightfully yummy! Vegan Sweetened condensed milk is one of the ingredients that can make or break a dessert. Indian desserts are no exception.
After opting for a vegan lifestyle, this was one ingredient I thought I was going to miss, but luckily enough I have a substitute and it is a good one too! It will not only give me a sense of achievement but also opened up a host of possibilities when it comes to desserts.....
I am going to be trying all the desserts I have shared with you in the past, with this secret substitute for condensed milk. But it does not have to stop there...It is also your turn to show me what you can do with this recipe.
Link up any recipe on your blog that uses this recipe for vegan condensed milk or share this recipe with the "cook" in your family or friends circle. The more we spread the news about milk substitutes, the lesser is our dependence on animal foods. The list of ingredients is fairly simple and it takes far less time than preparing the non-vegan version. So here's the recipe you have been waiting for...
how to make this recipe

Have you tried this with another plant milk? I make this using another recipe, but since I have been using so much in my iced coffee, I would like to find an alternative without saturated fat. I'm just wondering about the success of using soy or almond milk.

This week I am planning to make Condensed Milk using Almond milk. So go ahead and let me know how it turned out for you.
Liza
Did it work with the almond milk?
Uma Raghupathi
Not for the first time. But yes you should add little almond flour too.

This sounds wonderful for me as I'm just switching over to a vegan lifestyle and having a hard time deciding how to deal with my dislike for black coffee... Haha. But could you please tell me, how long can i store this in the fridge as it is and whether freezing some is also an option? Thank you!
Uma Raghupathi
Hello Mel. Nice to know that you are switching to vegan! This condensed milk is stays good in fridge for a month. I don't know about freezing. Because I do this every month:) Hope this is helping you:) Happy cooking:) Thanks.
