    5 Minute Dairy-Free Caramel Sauce that’s Rich and Buttery

    1
    By Alisa Fleming on August 31, 2022 Dairy Free Desserts, Dairy-Free Recipes, Sauces

    This delicious caramel sauce literally takes minutes to make. The recipe was originally shared with us by a fantastic website called Allergycooks. They’ve sadly since closed, but this sweet dessert topping lives on. It was originally created to serve sundae-style with sliced bananas and dairy-free vanilla ice cream. But it’s also amazing with stone fruit, served fresh, roasted or grilled.

    According to the recipe creator, Lyle’s Golden Syrup is the secret to a rich, buttery, and satisfying dairy-free caramel sauce. But in a pinch, you can swap in non-GMO corn syrup or even maple syrup.

    The brown sugar gives it a light butterscotch-y taste. But a light squeeze of lemon juice adds to the depth of flavor, and lends complement to various fruit pairings. It also cuts out the need for adding salt.

      Great site to visit! You don’t have to hunt and beg like on other sites to get the recipes and directions. Several other sites are not easy to use…. this site is very easy and the pictures do justice to what we might make.
