Chewy Keto Caramel Candy - 2 ingredients!
These chewy keto caramel candies are such an easy, tasty treat! I have avoided refined sugar for the past 22 years so I have not had caramel in decades. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that with two simple ingredients, I could create a delicious, chewy caramel candy that was keto, low carb and blood sugar friendly!I love experimenting with ingredients and allulose has been a fun, surprising one to play with. Allulose is a sweetener that will not spike blood sugar. Read more about allulose in my blog post here.
Ingredients
- ½ cup allulose granulated
- ½ cup butter
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium low heat.
- Add allulose to the melted butter and stir constantly with a chopstick or small silicone spatula.
- Using a candy thermometer, allow the temp to rise to 300F and no higher. Above 300F, allulose will burn, I found this out the hard way!
- Remove from heat immediately. Continue to stir.
- Pour Caramel into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper.
- Allow to “set up” in the fridge for about an hour.
- Lift the parchment paper out of the pan and cut your Caramel candy into any shape you like. Wrap pieces in parchment or waxed paper.
- Store in the refrigerator until you are ready to enjoy!
Notes
If you like salted caramel, use coarse sea salt to sprinkle. If you like chocolate dipped caramel, cut caramel into small pieces and dip into dark chocolate. The possibilities are endless!
