RECIPE
Prep Time: 45 minutes
Serves: enough for breakfast for 6
INGREDIENTS
10 ounce can of organic coconut milk
1/3 or 1/2 cups coconut sugar
1 teaspoon of shiro miso (light) or 1/2 tsp dark brown miso and a small pinch of sea salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp tapioca starch/arrowroot/flour to thicken
Optional: make it think for pancakes and thicker for spreading
HOW TO
Step 1: combine coconut milk and coconut sugar in a medium pot
Step 2: heat on medium high heat and stir or thick until coconut sugar dissolves
Step 3: add the miso/salt and vanilla and stir again. Next add your thickener (tapioca) if you want it thicker)
Step 4: increase heat until milk/sugar mixtures comes to a soft boil.
Step 5: let it soft boil (around medium high) for about 20 minutes or until 10 ounces is reduced to one cup or around that
Step 6: while it simmers, you can make something to have it with (like pancakes)! Stir on occasion while it soft boils to avoid a sticky bottom
Step 7: remove from heat and transfer sauce to glass jar until ready to serve
