Homemade Caramel Sauce Recipe Delight

Caramel Sauce Recipes and Making Guide

Caramel sauce is a magical ingredient that can transform countless desserts into heavenly treats. It has the power to add a delightful sweetness and a hint of saltiness, taking the flavor to new heights. Have you ever tried making your own homemade caramel sauce? In this article, we’ll explore a delicious and healthy caramel sauce recipe, along with step-by-step instructions on how to make it, as well as some ideas on what desserts to pair it with.

Caramel Sauce Making Made Easy

Making caramel sauce might seem intimidating at first, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. There are two common methods for making caramel – the dry method and the wet method. The dry method can be tricky and requires careful attention, while the wet method usually involves adding water, which is easier but not everyone’s favorite. However, the method we’ll be using in this recipe is even easier than the typical wet method. And the best part? It’s dairy-free and processed sugar-free! Instead of using heavy cream and butter, we’ll be using coconut milk and coconut oil. And instead of processed sugar, we’ll include maple syrup and coconut sugar, making it a healthier alternative.

Caramel doesn’t get its color from brown sugar or molasses, but from the heating or caramelization of the sugar. In this case, we’re using coconut sugar, which offers a healthier option.

How to Make Caramel Sauce

To make this amazing caramel sauce, you’ll need just six simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. Let’s dive into the four easy steps:

Step 1: Add the coconut milk, coconut sugar, and maple syrup to a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

Step 2: Add the coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Feel free to adjust the amount of sea salt according to your taste preferences.

Step 3: Gently mix all the ingredients together in the saucepan.

Step 4: Remove the saucepan from the heat and place it in the refrigerator to allow the mixture to cool completely before serving. Once it’s cooled, top your favorite desserts with this delicious caramel sauce and enjoy!


Some great desserts to drizzle this caramel sauce on include chocolate caramel coconut flour brownies, Paleo brownies, blondies, sweet potato brownies, zucchini brownies, and chocolate mug cake.
