What is olive oil caramel sauce?
Olive oil caramel sauce is a modern twist on traditional caramel sauce, where olive oil is used in place of butter! This substitution creates a smooth, rich, and slightly fruity caramel with a unique flavour profile. The olive oil adds depth and a subtle Mediterranean flair, making the sauce both vegan-friendly and slightly healthier than its butter-based counterpart which is usually made up of saturated fats. It’s versatile and can be drizzled over desserts like ice cream, cakes, or used as a dip, offering a deliciously indulgent experience with a hint of sophistication. Did I mention how delicious it is?
Is olive oil caramel sauce vegan?
Yes, olive oil caramel sauce is naturally vegan, as it doesn’t contain any dairy products like butter or cream. This is an easy and delicious option for anyone who is vegan, flexitarian or wanting to cut down on their dairy and saturated fats intake.
Can I use any type of olive oil for this caramel sauce?
It’s best to use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavour and health benefits. Avoid strongly flavoured or bitter olive oils to keep the caramel smooth and balanced.
