Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1–1.5 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or cane sugar (optional)
- Pinch of fine sea salt
Instructions
Instructions
- Add the heavy cream, whole milk, and sweetened condensed milk to a small saucepan and warm over low heat for 3–5 minutes, whisking often, until hot to the touch and smooth without simmering or boiling.
- Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, then taste and adjust vanilla if desired.
- If you prefer a sweeter creamer, whisk in 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or sugar while the mixture is still warm to dissolve fully.
- Let the mixture cool for 15–20 minutes, then pour into a clean glass bottle or jar, seal, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.
Notes
Shake before each use as natural separation may occur. Store refrigerated in a sealed glass jar for 7–10 days; discard if it smells sour or appears curdled. Do not boil when heating. For a lighter version, use half-and-half; for dairy-free, use full-fat coconut milk and unsweetened almond milk. Vanilla bean paste or a scraped vanilla bean can be used for deeper flavor and flecks.
