Homemade Condensed Milk Recipe

Homemade sweetened condensed milk is deliciously rich, creamy, and silky smooth in texture. Perfect to use as an ingredient for many dessert recipes, Indian mithai, eggless baking as well ice creams like mango tutti frutti ice cream too!!

What is Condensed Milk?

As the name suggests condensed milk is thick sweet milk that has been condensed to about 1/3 of its original volume by evaporating the liquid over slow cooking.

I am sharing slow cooking process and traditional method to make condensed milk at home. Depending on how much milk you have it could take from 45 minutes to 50 minutes or more. 

The result is a thick, rich, creamy, delicious sweetened condensed milk you can eat with a spoon. Or use it in any recipe that that calls for condensed milk.

Can I Make Dairy-Free Condensed Milk?

My condensed milk recipe contains milk, however, if you are dairy-free and/or like vegan baking, use coconut milk rather than dairy milk follow the exact same recipe. It is just as easy to make and it tastes great too.

INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTES

Milk - it's best to use whole milk(full fat). Skimmed milk has too much liquid so it will take longer to evaporate and you won't get thick milk. You can also use coconut milk, almond milk, or oats milk.

Sweetener - I've used white sugar but you can use brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, or even sugar-free alternatives. I have made with condensed milk with brown sugar also, you can also check out this recipe also

Baking Soda 

Why is baking soda used in condensed milk?

Adding baking soda may prevent the protein in the milk from coagulating which gives a smoother consistency.

  1. This homemade condensed milk looks just like what we get in the market, but with this one we know there are no preservatives or artificial colors. Though a laborious recipe, a useful one as very often I don't get condensed milk in the market here.
