Vegan Black Miso Caramel

February 18, 2019 By Lisa Kitahara Leave a Comment

Rich thick and ooey-gooey miso caramel sauce infused with the mild nuttiness of black sesames. Made with just 4 ingredients and so dang delicious, perfect to drizzle over any dessert!

If it’s got black sesame’s in it, count me in! I LOVE sweets that have black sesame in it. Black sesame paste has a very pleasant nutty flavour, a slight bitterness and a deep black colour that pairs perfectly with a bit of saltiness coming from the miso.

I love easy minimal ingredient recipes, so love that this recipe comes together with just 4 ingredients (plus a bit of water… but does that count as an ingredient?). Drizzle this over any dessert, pancakes or waffles! It can even be used as a glaze, like for these Black Sesame Miso Donuts 😉

This Vegan Black Miso Caramel is:

  • rich

  • creamy

  • ooey-gooey

  • thick

  • nutty and perfectly salted

  • vegan

  • gluten, dairy, oil and refined sugar free

  • & a incredibly delicious take on traditional caramel sauce

Tips and Tricks to making Vegan Black Miso Caramel

  • I’ve tried this with carton coconut milk, and I highly suggest you stick to the canned milks as it yields a better creamy consistency

  • If you can’t find black sesame paste, you can buy black sesame’s, grind them up and use the powder.

  • Cane sugar can be used in place of coconut sugar.

  • This Vegan Black Miso Caramel will last in the fridge up to 10-12 days.

Method

  1. Dissolve the miso paste in the water.

  2. Add the miso water and coconut sugar into a medium deep sauce pan and stir until the sugar dissolves.

  3. Without stirring, bring the mixture to medium high heat and bring to a boil.

  4. Once the mixture starts to look thickened, remove the pan from the heat. Add in the coconut milk and black sesame paste and stir to combine.
