Omg, I just saw the recipe yesterday. Came here to get the caramel recipe. Can’t wait to try them. I’m a HUGE fan of the original salted caramel butter bars.
This sauce is seriously addicting. Yours is one of the very few channels where the food turns out like it supposed to. I appreciate your explanation through the video. My favorite cooking channel.
Thank you so much for this recipe, Carolyn!!!! Yesterday I made homemade keto butter pecan ice cream, which of course, wouldn't be complete without caramel sauce.🍦🍨🍮. DELISH!!!❤❤❤
I love your videos and your recipes! I’m glad I’m not the only one that talks to my ingredients…😉. Thanks for sharing your goodies and inspiring us to eat healthier and well!!
Yes, I'm a fan and yes, it's a favorite, for sure 😉. With that said, with this video, I learned a few more things with the visual. I'm almost sure I have some in the freezer but I will definitely be playing back this video when I make it again, in the near future, lol. Thanks again, Carolyn 🤗
Hola Carolina como estas hice este caramelo y quedo delicioso lo voy a usar en el poke cake que lleva esta caramelo vi la receta en gool cuando la subes a yt
Carolyn thank you for sharing this recipe. I had two failed attempts with sweeteners with cranberry sauce two years in a row. First time I used monk fruit that crystalized 😳 second used swerve and orange extract another recipe 🤢 Now that I have alluose, I think for sauces like cranberries and caramel sauce it doesn't crystalize when it cools. I will be trying your recipe Thanks again ❤️🙂
I made this (and your caramel butter bars) today! SO DELICIOUS!! I didn’t have granular or powdered Allulose, though. So, I used 2 Tbsp original liquid Allulose and 2 Tbsp caramel liquid Allulose, and kept all the other ingredients the same, and it worked perfectly! And (speaking as a caramel LOVER) I can honestly say, it really does taste just like real caramel! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! 🙏 ❤
It's good on the counter for a few days, and in the fridge for up to 10 days, as long as your ingredients were fresh. I've kept it even longer but for food safety reasons, I'd say don't go past 10.
if you want something like that, make sure you use allulose rather than BochaSweet. Then yes, boil it more in the second step, until it's really thickly bubbling. Pour into silicone molds and refrigerate.
*** I found the recipe on her website!👏🏼👏🏼 Just click on the link she provided. I agree I would love the salted bar recipe, I have the every day ketogenic kitchen and the keto baking cookbooks and it’s not in either one of those! Great cookbooks, both of them. I highly recommend you get them.
I made this sauce, and it was freaking good! I added it to my keto Snickers ice cream bars and to my keto magnum bars it was almost authentic to the store ice creams. Thank you for this easy, simple to follow recipe .
I’m so bummed because that kinds of sweeteners are not yet sold in Europe… do you think it would taste as good with Munk fruit or erythritol ? Thank you 😊
Can you clarify what the swerve brown is made up of please? We don’t get swerve here in Australia. There are other brown sugar free options however I’m always afraid of recrystallising which is very frustrating. Thankyou for your yummy recipes👏
“Brown Swerve is zero calories, non-glycemic, and contains no molasses or sugar! The ingredients include Erythritol, prebiotic oligosaccharides, vegetable glycerin, fruit juice concentrate (for color), and natural flavors. And it is so amazingly similar to Brown Sugar, it's no wonder it took us two years to perfect.”
You can use Wholeearth brown sugar replacement available in coles and woolies. It’s basically similar to swerve brown 😊 it contains molasses too and looks like packed brown sugar!
It’s too soft, for caramelized onions you want some thing that ends up hard and crunchy. But I have a candy pecans recipe on my website that you might like.
I used BochaSweet granulated brown sweetener and also some plain granulated allulose for the white sweetener, as I didn't have any erythritol in the house at that moment. Also added a small drizzle of blackstrap molasses to darken the color a little more. I'm not sure that little bit of molasses is enough to kick you out of ketosis (seriously, it was definitely not more than 1/4 tsp.!), but just be aware that it *might*. Anyway, I put the finished caramel in a squeeze bottle in my fridge, and it does stay soft and pourable, even when it's cold. My husband absolutely HATES anything that tastes like it contains non-sucrose sweetener... I gave him a taste of this on a spoon after it cooled down, and he thinks it's *delicious.* And so do I! :-)))
Fabulous! And that minuscule amount of molasses is unlikely to do anything. 1 tbsp of molasses has 15g of carbs, so 1 teaspoon has 5g. 1/4 teaspoon would be 1.25g. Divide that by the number of servings... you get the idea! ;)
Only had 1/2and1/2 on hand so, crossing my fingers, I increased the butter by 1 Tbl (to compensate for less fat in the 1/2and1/2) and continued on with your recipe. Turned out fine!
So I was surprised to discover that the main ingredient in BochaSweet Brown is erythritol! They aren't even using they're signature sweetener. Hmm.... I don't think it will have the same true brown sugar flavor as Swerve but I haven't tried it yet.
Thank you so much Carolyn. Since I no longer go to Dairy Queen for for Caramel Sunday. Now, thanks to you with this recipe.I no longer for Dairy Queen. Thanks my fellow Canadian.
Caramel sauce is always going to firm up in the fridge. But you can easily scoop a serving into a small ramekin and warm gently in the microwave to loosen it up. 10 seconds is plenty!
I tried this recipe and it didn't go well.😢 Afterwards, I saw some other videos that don't use the X gum so I will try my next batch without that. Thanks for sharing.
Busy! Summer is crazy... and it's always quieter on YT in the summer so it doesn't make sense to post every week. Videos see a lot fewer views. But glad to know you missed me!
How soon does it get grainy? Erythritol is known to crystalize. Is this to be stored in the fridge? When I used birch xylitol on its own it stayed strangely crystal clear and so my caramel just looked yellow from the butter I used when it was done and it did crystalize however in less than an hr on the counter. I see recipes including lemon juice and water to help create an invert sugar to prevent crystallization but xylitol and allulose isn't sucrose. How can I find out more on heating temps and chemistry for xylitol and allulose? Everything is sugar specific. Also I bought sage and Acacia honey that I will add in the end to prevent crystallization though I am aware that isn't exactly keto but it will only be a small amount and I really am determined to get my caramel to stay a caramel and not just convert to a gritty brown sugar after all that effort. The goal is vegan, sugar free caramel. I will be playing around will less coconut oil now so it doesn't create such an intense flavor. Well, I could just get one that is tasteless! And not all coconut cream tastes amazing and so of course I have to make another trip to the store and buy the best possible ingredients to get this just right.
I like your channel. I’m in the UK - Cups? I don’t know that measurement. Cups are different sizes aren’t they? Would it be possible to give the amounts in grams and the temperature in centigrade as well as Fahrenheit as the UK and rest of Europe use Centigrade. You use gelatine in some recipes but many are viewers like me are vegetarian or vegan - is there a cruelty free vegetable option ? You use serve quite a lot. We don’t have that here. We have stevia as a sweetener here in a stevia/ inulin mixture. Is that the same stuff? As a diabetic and a vegetarian trying to stick to a keto diet it’s hard to find tasty things to eat that are simple and healthy. Your channel is very interesting.
I feel you on the difficulty of translating between volumetric and weighted measurements. I find myself Googling "how many grams in a cup" far too often, but it's often worth it
@@vanguardiris3232 Yes this takes so much time for different ingredients. I used to bake years ago and by the age of 7 or 8 made tastier scones and jam tarts than my mum. I was always fastidious with weighing lol.
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood Sorry about the typos. I will speak to texting and that’s what I get every time a bunch of garbage. Anyway I’ll look at the options thank you
And I always wonder why people complain about this when they are getting free recipes, and when there is a "Jump to Recipe" button right at the top of the post?
Hmmm, really? Seems to me that some bloggers seek to educate their blog readers and/or build a sense of community. If you are too time-strapped for that, or uninterested, it is nice to have the ability to "skip to recipe" (not offered universally but Carolyn does have that convenience option).

I, for one, appreciate it! Thank you, CK and crew for your work (recipes, videos and keeping up with comments and all!). Blessings!

Just made this and it is the best Thank you
Thanks!!!
Wonderful stuff, thank you Carolyn
Is there a way to make this recipe dairy free?
Could this be made with half and half?
What a great video. Simple recipe and can use in some many things. Wonder how it would go with some flan
Carolyn thank you for sharing this recipe. I had two failed attempts with sweeteners with cranberry sauce two years in a row.

Can you cook this down or add more xanthan gum to make a toffee or a chewy caramel nugget?
if you want something like that, make sure you use allulose rather than BochaSweet. Then yes, boil it more in the second step, until it's really thickly bubbling. Pour into silicone molds and refrigerate.
Carolyn, THANK YOU 🙏

You have the best recipes ever! And only thing equal to great caramel sauce is fudge sauce lol!
fabulous! Can you tell me how to store this and how long it will last? thank you!
I’m so bummed because that kinds of sweeteners are not yet sold in Europe… do you think it would taste as good with Munk fruit or erythritol ? Thank you 😊
Same goes for Canada 😞
Awesome ! Thank you ! Can’t wait to try this ! 💐
Hope you like it!
Can you make it without the swerve brown, just the allulose?
This is good in a little hot coffee. Stir to blend and add ice...then more coffee if desired. Great!
Ooohhhh wow delicioso 😋😋😋 Gracias 😊☺️😍💝
Is consuming allulose safe?
Can I use something besides allulose?

It’s too soft, for caramelized onions you want some thing that ends up hard and crunchy. But I have a candy pecans recipe on my website that you might like.
Can I use coconut cream or coconut full fat milk instead of heavy cream?
Would BochaSweet brown work?
I haven't actually tried it yet... was wondering the same. They just sent me some to test out.
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood very nice can't wait to see what you can do with it.
Caroline, can I use ghee instead of butter? Thank you.
I haven't tried it with ghee... it will be a tasty experiment!
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood Thanks!
What is allulose or BochaSweet?
I don’t think it’s available in Canada. What could I use in its place?
How do I store this lot of golden yumminess
@@pawtailspetsittingservices6883 fridge!!!
@AllDayIDreamAboutFood o.k. ty...I put it in the pantry but will move now🙏😉
I wonder if this can be tweaked for a caramel in flan....
Flan is a bit of a different process. alldayidreamaboutfood.com/coconut-flan/
I used BochaSweet granulated brown sweetener and also some plain granulated allulose for the white sweetener, as I didn't have any erythritol in the house at that moment.

at what temperature is the caramel thickens properly for this recipe?
You don't need a thermometer, just follow the instructions carefully. :)
Does it matter if it’s unsalted butter?
Not at all! You're adding a bit of salt anyway.
Excellent video and recipe as always CK, preparing for Thanksgiving and this a staple 🙌🏼
Thanks so much!
Oh this is fantastic! Ty
Glad you like it!
Looks great. I will have to try this
Hope you enjoy!
Is there a specific reason to use Bocha Sweet?
Yup! Please expand a video description and you will see links to some great information about keto sweeteners
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood thank you. You’re always so good about responding to questions. 😁
Not sure what I did wrong but mine came about chemically tasting. Could the brand of allulose make a difference?
I love love your recipes thank you
What do you recommend if I want to go non-dairy?
Excellent, thanks!
You're welcome!
Put it on top of my brownies....DELICIOUS!
DEFINITELY going to keep this in the fridge
Sounds great!
Can’t wait to make this to use on those salted caramel bars!
Could you use gelatine instead of the other thickener? It is off-putting fo rme.
Please post the ingredient list too :)
What about Caramel Apples?
I can't get alulose here in Spain, you think it would work with all eritritol or eritritol and xilitol?
Xylitol is your best bet for the second sweetener. All erythritol means it will re-crystallize but the two together should work.
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood thanks so much for your answer! I try it asap! 🥰🥰🥰
How does Bocha Sweet brown compare to Swerve brown in baking?
So I was surprised to discover that the main ingredient in BochaSweet Brown is erythritol! They aren't even using they're signature sweetener. Hmm.... I don't think it will have the same true brown sugar flavor as Swerve but I haven't tried it yet.
Does Boccha give tremendous gas on the tummy ? I read it did. I bought some but never used it.

non of these sweeteners we have in my country :( What about stevia, erythritol ar xylitol? Can I use one of those? Thank you
