Say what! - and only five ingredients, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla, instant coffee and sea salt. This is a must try recipe you guys!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can coconut milk (400 ml) (Full fat)
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp instant coffee ( reg or decaf)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Add coconut milk and maple syrup to a heavy bottomed sauce pot. Bring it to a simmer ( medium heat or less) and cook for 20-25 minutes (uncovered), stirring very frequently with a spatula. Scape down sides of the pot a few times. The mixture should slightly darken in colour and of course get thicker. See video below?
- Remove from heat and stir in the rest of ingredients
- Enjoy!
Notes
- The sauce will thicken quite a bit when it cools so I like to warm the sauce in the microwave before serving.
- And just a heads up- The instant coffee is the flavour bomb for this recipe. It's very subtle, trust me but adds to the rich caramel flavour beautifully. It's a must, I always keep regular and decaf instant coffee in my cupboard.
