Make your own KETO condensed milk at home with only 5 ingredients, no sugar, and recreate your favorite keto desserts, ice cream, and more!
No, regular condensed milk is not keto-friendly since it’s made of 2 high-carb ingredients: white sugar and full-fat milk.
Milk contains a lot of carbs from lactose (a disaccharide made of glucose and galactose) and white sugar is pure carbs.
This keto condensed milk is easier than you think to make at home!
To create this delicious, thick, sweet condensed milk you only need 20 minutes and 5 ingredients listed below:
First, bring the heavy cream to a light boil and evaporate the cream, as you would do with regular milk in a classic condensed milk recipe.
It takes about 10-12 minutes to do so. The heavy cream may foam up, so whisk every 1-2 minutes to bring it down and prevent the cream from overflowing the saucepan.
Then, remove from heat and whisk in the butter, powdered sweetener, and vanilla. Keep whisking until the butter is fully melted.
Finally, sprinkle the xanthan gum, don’t add it all at once or it would create lumps! Whisk vigorously and bring back to medium heat for 3-5 minutes to thicken.
Your condensed milk gets its best texture after completely cooling down and reaching room temperature.
Be patient, stir the sugar-free sweetened condensed milk every 10 minutes for 30 minutes.
This helps the condensed milk to cool down and also it prevents a crust/film from forming on top of the evaporated milk.
You can use this keto condensed milk recipe in any keto dessert recipe or keto recipe calling for condensed milk substitutes. But it’s also a great treat to add to:
You can find the full nutrition information of this keto sweetened condensed milk substitute after the recipe card below.

You can store this recipe in a glass mason jar or sealed jar in the fridge for 5 days. It will harden in the fridge because the butter solidify and that’s ok!
Coffee creamer
If you intend to use it in your coffee, as a coffee creamer, spoon the condensed milk into a blender and pour the hot coffee on top. Blend, to combine. You MUST blend coffee and condensed milk or you will end up with two layers, coffee at the bottom and oil on top.
Rewarm harden condensed milk
Otherwise, you can bring the jar or the amount you want for your recipe into a small bowl and microwave 20-30 seconds or rewarm on the stove in a saucepan. Give a good stir before serving to blend the flavors and remove any thin layer that could form on top of the jar.
Another option is to freeze this recipe in an ice cube tray. This makes it easier to thaw one serve at a time.
Simply fill each ice cube tray with 2 tablespoons of the recipe so you are sure it contains the net carbs per serving indicated in the nutrition panel below.
