Salted Caramel Sauce
An easy caramel sauce to use with keto ice cream, over fresh berries, in coffee, or anywhere else you want a creamy, caramel kick of flavor.
Serving: 2 Tbsp. (1 fl. oz.)
Yield: Twelve 2-Tbsp. servings
Calories: 149.4kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream*
- 2 Tbsp. yacon syrup **
- 1 serving Salted Caramel Keto Chow
- 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Coarse sea salt for serving
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat for about five minutes, or until it begins to smell toasted, and the butter solids start to look golden.
- Remove from heat and let cool for five minutes. Then stir in the heavy cream and yacon syrup.
- Sprinkle the Keto Chow over the mixture and whisk until completely incorporated.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Serve the sauce warm with a sprinkling of coarse sea salt.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Notes
*This sauce can easily be made into a dip by reducing the heavy cream to half a cup and refrigerating until thickened.
**If needed, substitute with another sugar-free syrup, or simply omit. This syrup does add 22 net carbs, unfortunately, so if this is a concern, we recommend omitting it altogether. The nutrition information listed includes the yacon syrup.

Can I try this recipe with ChocZero Caramel Syrup instead?
Not sure, give it a try and let us know if it works (sounds yummy).
Update:
I tried it with ChocZero Caramel Syrup and it was a success.
That’s awesome, thanks for sharing!!
Looks like you say the yacon syrup has 22 net carbs. Is that correct for 2T?
Yes, that is correct. I just confirmed it on both cronometer and google and found this, “though it has about 11 grams of carbs per tablespoon (15 ml), studies show that the carbs in yacon syrup don’t affect blood sugar the way regular sugar does.”
