home made coffee creamer...

Somehow mornings are just not the same around here unless I have my morning cup of coffee (...or two!)
In the past, I have bought those fancy store-bought coffee creamers; in all sorts of flavors and such. They are good, but I was never really crazy about all those extra-added ingredients...you know, the ones you can't even pronounce.
Just recently I came across a recipe for a home-made coffee creamer recipe. Needless to say, I was very excited and eager to try this out! Well, I did... and I love the results!
Now, I know this is not a fat-free, health food...but, at least I know what is in my coffee!

My usual store bought french vanilla coffee creamer has the following ingredients:

Water, Sugar, Palm Oil, Corn Syrup, Contains Less Than 2% Of Each Of The Following Ingredients: Carrageenan, Mono And Diglycerides, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Salt, Dipotassium Phosphate, Sodium Caseinate (A Milk Derivative), Natural And Artificial Flavors. *Sodium Caseinate Is Not A Source Of Lactose.


My home-made french vanilla coffee creamer has the following ingredients:

sweetened condensed milk
milk (cow or soy/almond/coconut)
vanilla extract

Home-Made French Vanilla Coffee Creamer

 

* 1 can of sweetened condensed milk

* 1 1/4 cup of milk (soy, rice, coconut can be substitued)

* 3 teaspoons of vanilla (more or less to suit your taste....I added less)

 

Mix all ingredients and pour into lidded container(s). Can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

 

Enjoy!
