Equipment
- Saucepan
Ingredients
- 1 cup half and half or milk of choice
- 1 tbs molasses
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- dash nutmeg
- 1 tbs maple syrup brown sugar or honey. Add more for a sweeter creamer.
Instructions
- Add half and half (or milk of choice) into a small saucepan, preferably a heavy-bottomed pan.
- Measure spices and sweeteners into the milk.
- Place over low heat and stir frequently until heated through and combined.
- Transfer to a air-tight container and store in the fridge.
Notes
- A heavy-bottomed saucepan will reduce the risk of scalding your milk while also distributing the heat more evenly.
- Note the expiration date on your dairy or non-dairy of choice, then label your homemade coffee creamer the same to keep track.
- Shake or stir before use, as the spices will settle to the bottom.
