Instant Pot Caramel From Condensed Milk
Description
To prepare Instant Pot Caramel from condensed milk, a single sealed can of sweetened condensed milk is placed in the Instant Pot's inner pot and submerged completely in warm water. The pot is sealed and set to cook under manual pressure for 40 minutes. After natural pressure release, the can is cooled quickly by pouring cold water over it. When opened, the contents reveal a thick caramel sauce derived from the cooked condensed milk.
This process allows for even caramelization without scorching the milk, which can happen with stovetop methods. The resulting caramel is smooth, sweet, and ready to use as a topping or ingredient in desserts.
Cooking multiple cans simultaneously is possible as long as all cans fit submerged and the water level is sufficient. The caramel should be handled gently once cooled, stirred well before use, and stored appropriately.
