Transform your desserts with this revolutionary two ingredient vegan caramel sauce that relies entirely on natural sweetness and heart healthy fats. By vigorously whisking pure maple syrup with high quality extra virgin olive oil, you create a luscious, glossy emulsion that mimics the rich mouthfeel of traditional dairy caramel. This plant based alternative is entirely free from refined sugars and heavy cream. Drizzle this velvety sauce over fresh fruit or oatmeal for a sophisticated and nourishing flavour upgrade.
1/2 cup pure maple syrup  1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil  A pinch of flaky sea salt
Pour the pure maple syrup and extra virgin olive oil into a small glass jar with a tight fitting lid.
Seal the jar securely and shake vigorously for two minutes until the liquids emulsify into a thick, cloudy caramel consistency.
Alternatively, whisk the two ingredients together in a bowl continuously until they blend into a cohesive, velvety sauce.
Stir in a pinch of flaky sea salt if desired, and store the sauce in the refrigerator to thicken further before serving.
