Is Condensed Milk Keto?
Definitely not. Regular condensed milk contains 165g of net carbs per cup since it’s made with tons of sugar and full-fat milk.
However, you can make homemade low-carb condensed milk that tastes similar to the regular version and can be used in various recipes. This alternative has a sticky, and thick texture. It’s perfectly sweet and creamy, making it an ideal substitute for traditional condensed milk in your favorite recipes.
Additionally, condensed milk, sweetened condensed milk, and coconut condensed milk are not keto-friendly options either.
Ingredients For This Keto Condensed Milk
You will need only three ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry to create this delicious keto condensed milk. Here is everything you will need:
- Heavy Cream – this is the main ingredient for this condensed milk, so make sure that you are using a full fat version. Using half-and-half or milk alternatives won’t work as condensed milk requires high-fat content. However, you can make keto condensed coconut milk using full-fat canned coconut milk.
- Butter – unsalted butter is the best for this recipe; just make sure it is at room temperature to combine well with the heavy cream.
- Sweetener – make sure that you use powdered sweetener to dissolve more easily into the cream mixture and avoid lumps.
How To Make Keto Sweetened Condensed Milk
After seeing how easy it is to make your condensed milk at home, you’ll want to make it over and over again. Here is everything you have to do:
- Start by adding the heavy cream to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
- Add the butter, sweetener and mix until the butter is melted.
- Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer until the condensed milk starts to thicken.
- Pour your keto condensed milk into a glass jar and enjoy.
Tips For Making Keto Condensed Milk
- Make sure that you are cooking your condensed milk at medium because otherwise, it will burn.
- I recommended sifting the sweetener to avoid that sandy texture and creating lumps.
- To avoid burning the heavy cream, whisk or stir it often while cooking.
- If you think that your condensed milk is too thin, you have to cook it for a longer time.
- You can add extra sweetener if you want your condensed milk to be sweeter.
- For a richer taste, you can use a sugar-free brown alternative.
How Can I Use This Keto Condensed Milk
This keto condensed milk is extremely versatile, and can be used for many recipes that call for regular condensed milk. Here are some great ideas:
- Coffee or Tea: You can add it to your bulletproof coffee, keto Thai iced tea, classic black coffee, or keto iced coffee to sweeten it up.
- Make Keto Ice Cream: It’s one of the main ingredients in keto ice cream recipes.
- Keto Desserts: You can use sugar-free sweetened condensed milk keto cake recipes like keto tres leches cake or keto German chocolate cake.
- Fresh Fruit: Drizzle keto condensed milk over the top of a bowl of your favorite low carb berries such as strawberries, raspberries, or apples.
Can I Make Instant Pot Condensed Milk?
Sure, if you want to make condensed milk in a short time, using an instant pot is the best solution.
- Use the saute function of your instant pot. Add the heavy cream to the pot and bring to a boil by stirring occasionally.
- Boil the heavy cream for ten minutes until it begins to thicken.
- Stir the butter and sweetener. Cook for 20 minutes or until it begins to thicken.
- Don’t worry if your condensed milk seems too thin because it will start to thicken as it cools.
Storing Ideas
- Fridge: You can store this keto condensed milk in the fridge in a jar for up to one week.
- Freezer: This keto condensed milk can also be stored in the freezer. Put it in an airtight container and store it for one month.

I haven’t created a keto version of the Key Lime Pie using your exact regular recipe, but I’ve got a keto Key Lime Pie recipe that’s even easier to make and just as delicious. For the crust, you can use the keto graham cracker recipe from my blog. However, I’m all about keeping recipes simple and accessible to everyone. This approach means you can easily find the ingredients and enjoy making (and eating!) this delicious dessert without any hassle.
