Ingredients

Instructions

  • Pour the milk into a medium non-stick pot. Heat over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer. Do not let it boil.
  • Lower the heat to medium-low and let the milk simmer gently for about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally every 5–10 minutes with a spatula to prevent the bottom from browning. The milk will reduce slightly—about ¼—and remain runny.
  • Whisk in the sweetener until completely dissolved. Continue simmering for about 1 hour, or until the milk has reduced by half, taken on a creamy color, and thickened slightly. Do not stir foam or residue around the pot sides into the milk.
  • Remove the pot from heat immediately. Strain the condensed milk into a heatproof container and allow it to cool completely before sealing with an airtight lid.
  • Label and store in the refrigerator. The milk will thicken further as it cools and can last up to 3-4 weeks in the fridge.
