Homemade coffee creamer is so easy to make: 2 cups of milk and one can of sweetened condensed milk. I, however, have developed an easy substitute for the sweetened condensed milk.
Dates are used in place of sugar to make sweetened condensed milk, which can be used in place of a can of sweetened condensed milk.
You can also substitute honey, stevia in the raw, or the sweetener of your choice for the dates.
And, of course, you can customize your creamer with extracts, cinnamon, or cocoa powder.

Ingredients

Instructions
- Place two cups of the milk in a heavy bottom pan with the dates.
- Slowly bring to a simmer, and simmer until reduced by half. This could take up to 45 minutes.
- Once reduced allow to cool and then purée in a food processor until smooth and creamy.
- In a jar, add the date puree, and the other two cups of milk.
- Shake well.
- You can add extracts to make flavored creamers. Make sure to use pure extracts like vanilla, hazelnut, almond, or ground cinnamon, or even chocolate sauce or cocoa powder.
- If adding flavor, start by adding a little at a time until it reaches the flavor you like.
