Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup of granulated erythritol or xylitol
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it becomes a golden liquid pool of richness, ready to impart its velvety texture to the caramel.
- Stir in the granulated erythritol or xylitol, allowing the sweetener to dissolve and meld with the butter, setting the stage for the caramelization process.
- As you continue to stir, watch with anticipation as the mixture begins to transform into a golden-brown hue, a visual cue that caramelization magic is happening right before your eyes. Exercise caution to prevent burning, as the line between caramel perfection and burnt bitterness is a delicate one.

- Let the mixture simmer gently for approximately 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to deepen and intensify, creating a symphony of caramel notes that dance on your palate with each spoonful.
- With a steady hand and a watchful eye, slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to incorporate it into the caramelized bliss. Be prepared for a bubbling reaction as the cream meets the heated mixture, a sign that you’re one step closer to caramel perfection.
- As the mixture continues to cook for another 1-2 minutes, stir diligently to ensure a smooth and velvety consistency, watching as the caramel thickens and coats the back of a spoon, a sure sign of its readiness to be enjoyed.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, infusing the caramel with a delicate aroma that tantalizes the senses and elevates its flavor profile to new heights. For those seeking an extra dimension of flavor, a pinch of salt can be added at this stage to enhance the caramel’s complexity.
- Allow the keto caramel to cool for a few minutes in the saucepan, allowing its flavors to meld and intensify before transferring it to a heatproof container or jar. As it cools further, marvel at its transformation into a luxuriously thick and velvety sauce, ready to adorn your favorite keto creations with its decadent embrace.
- Once cooled completely, store the caramel sauce in the refrigerator for future use, where it will await eagerly to elevate your desserts and snacks to newfound heights of indulgence.
