Yes you read that right! Vegan sugared condensed milk is a thing and can be made in 30 minutes with just simple ingredients!

But at some point I accepted the fact that I wouldn’t have it again. So you can only imagine my surprise when I realised that I could make it at vegan home! Took a couple of tries to get this recipe right but here it is! Easy to make, perfect consistancy and sooo yummy! Give it a go and let me know what you think!
