Description
Treat yourself to a delicious latte made with homemade caramel sauce. This sweet drink is the perfect treat for a quiet morning at home.
Ingredients
For the Vegan Caramel Sauce
- 6 medjool dates
- 3/4 cup hot water
- 4 tbsp coconut milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
For the Latte
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- coffee
- pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- To make the caramel sauce, let the dates sit in the hot water for 5-10 minutes then add the coconut milk and vanilla and blend until smooth.
- Warm your almond milk in the microwave or a small sauce pan, then froth using a milk frother.
- To make the lattes, add your brewed coffee to a mug, top with the frothed almond milk, a few spoonfuls of caramel sauce and a pinch of sea salt.
Notes
This makes about 1 cup of caramel sauce. Store any extra in the fridge and use it in oatmeal, as a topping for ice cream, a sweetener for your coffee, in smoothies or a sauce for desserts.
If you don’t have a milk frother, you can alternatively add the caramel sauce, coffee and almond milk to a blender with 2 tsp of MCT oil and blend until frothy for a bulletproof coffee version of this drink. Pour into a mug and top with a sprinkle of sea salt.
