How to use this condensed milk
You can use this condensed milk in all of your favorite desserts, such as these homemade almond joy bars. Fudge, cakes, pies, like this pumpkin pie, ice cream and candies all use sweetened condensed milk. It is delicious used as a coffee or tea creamer.
This milk is perfect for baking like coconut cream pie, banana cream pie, seven layers bars, cheesecakes and dulce de leche cake.
Which dairy free milk is best to use?
I have used almond milk, coconut milk and cashew milk. The one I liked the least was cashew milk. I found the flavor to be too strong.
Almond milk worked out great as far as flavor is concerned, the only drawback I see is the color. If you are making something that you want the color very white, it is not what you need.
Canned coconut milk makes a lovely white product. I would only use it for desserts that would benefit from a slight coconut flavor. In other words, I wouldn’t use it for pumpkin pie or something similar, although it might be good.
Any of these will produce a delicious, vegan sweetened condensed milk.
What you need
- dairy free milk product; almond milk, coconut milk, cashew milk, soy milk etc.

How to make it
- Add milk substitute to medium saucepan.
- Bring to boil. Turn heat down to simmer. Simmer 30-90 minutes, stir or whisk every 5-10 minutes to avoid sticking, until volume is about halved, depending on how fast it’s simmering. The consistency should be quite thick, like traditional condensed milk.
