DIY Caramel Sauce Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 cup coconut cream or plant-based butter (for a vegan-friendly option)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt (optional, for salted caramel)

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Once dissolved, stop stirring and let the mixture simmer until it turns a deep amber color (about 5–7 minutes). Keep a close eye on it!
  3. Remove from heat and carefully whisk in coconut cream or plant-based butter (it’ll bubble up—don’t worry).
  4. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt if desired.
  5. Let the caramel cool slightly before using. Store leftovers in a jar in the fridge for up to a week.
