Easy Oat Milk Vegan Sweetened Condensed Milk

This easy, hands-off vegan sweetened condensed milk uses just creamy oat milk, sugar, and vegan butter to create a super rich unbelievably dairy-free sweetened condensed milk perfect for ice cream, recipes, or even coffee!

Finally- an easy dairy free sweetened condensed milk without coconut!

Sweetened condensed milk is an amazing component recipe that is so important for when a recipe calls for it (think ice cream or homemade candy).

But when you don’t have it on hand, it’s super frustrating because honestly, there aren’t great swaps. That’s where this simple and easy vegan sweetened condensed milk recipe comes.

I’ve been in the middle of making a recipe, and realized I forgot to purchase vegan sweetened condensed milk, so I’ve made this in a pinch loads of times and it works perfectly.

And you don’t even need any coconut milk. Just 3 simple ingredients: oat milk (which you can even use my non-slimy homemade oat milk here!), sugar, and vegan butter. It truly is that easy!

Easy, hands-off method:

It just depends on your recipe and your desired outcome. But let’s get to the recipe:
