Is Condensed Milk Keto or Low-Carb?
No, normally condensed milk contains up to one cup of sugar per two cups of milk so it’s not low-carb or keto-friendly.
But as you can see with our keto condensed milk we don’t use whole milk but heavy cream instead and of course no sugar.
By using heavy cream we boost the fat content along with eliminating the high carb by using a natural sweetener in our case we use Swerve but you could use Natvia.
