You can absolutely make this with store-bought cow's or goat's milk and the original recipe (in the description) uses sugar instead of honey. Adapt the recipe as needed and enjoy!!! Let me know what you think if you make it!! --Heather
Can you please post a recipe
Found the video!!!
Thanks for attaching it to the cheesecake recipe!!!
So exciting!
Yay! I couldn't remember if I had done that. Glad you found it!! ♥
Made this and WONDERFUL!!! Thank you!!
Yay I'm glad you love it!
This is the first time I've heard of using honey instead of refined sugar. Thank you! Refined sugars make my feet hurt. This is going to be a wonderful way to get around that :)
Good morning! As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I thought, “It must have worked!” Yay! I love caramel so we will have to add this to our future recipes list!
Also, side note, kid #2 showed up yesterday morning (while I was away, of course). So now we have a buckling and a doeling!
Awe congratulations!! 🎉
That’s awesome….I figured you’d find a way to make it work!! Saves money too…cant beat that!!😊
Exactly !! Thanks for watching!
This is so amazing!! I had the same idea earlier this year trying to cut out traditional creamers! Love it!
Your videos are so down to earth and instructional, helpful and interesting and I appreciate all the effort that you go through to post them!! Amazing job, and hope life is serving you all the goodness for all the goodness you put out for others!

I 🤔💭 you hit the nail on the head 🔨 wit this comment ✨⭐✨❣️... Well ❤️🩹 said my friend, Heather is so inspiring n easy to ❤️ love, I'm so happy for her pooping up in my feed here on my recommended to 👀💭❣️ I jus ❤️ her 🥰😘 n wish I had found her sooner is my only complaint 😀 such a sweet friend to have on here Heather 👋 👋 @Sage and Stone Homestead ❣️...
You guys are so sweet!! Blessed to have you here ♡♡♡
You should start a goat recipe book... All parts of the goat including milk ❤
That's a great idea!!!
Did you know you can add 1 Tablespoon of cocoa powder per 1/2 pint of cajeta?
And can water-bath can.
1/2 inch headspace & process 20 min.
I've done this with great success!
Bless you Heather!
THANK YOU!!! I wondered if it would can up okay with the sugar content. I'll try it with regular sugar!! Thanks!!!
@@SageandStoneHomestead
I will look forward to the video ;-)
I need to get the courage to dive deeper into videoing and posting my rebel canning stuff. I need a proper disclaimer I think to make sure I'm covered.
Friends have taught me to use canned sweetened condensed milk,boiled to "soft ball" temperature with a candy thermometer,gotta' stir the dicken's out of it,to keep it from burning.Brown sugar,butter & milk will achieve much more flavorful result's.Guanajuato,Mexico is famous for their Cajeta.Homemade everything is usually the best,Thank's for showing us the True " Cajeta de Casera"!& That magma from the bubbles get's my respect everytime,lol!
My mother in law will boil the sweetened condensed milk in the can still!! It creates the caramel inside the can! Super cool!!
This looked so Yummy I stopped the video and went out and made some.. YES, super tasty! My husband will love this.. depending on brand of coffee creamer it s so toxic other countries don't allow the sales. The honey definitely comes through
I am SO glad you love it too!!! It's so good!♡♡
I don’t know if I’ve made this comment before, but I took the Cajeta and put big plops down on my freeze dryer sheet pan and freeze dried it. The only thing that didn’t seem the same was I had to use 2 of my freeze dried plops to taste up my coffee. I’d like to show you what this looks like but I can’t send you a photo here. I think I will by email.
I got the email! What an amazing idea, thank you for sharing! ❤️🐐☕️
Looks so good ♥️♥️♥️
Thanks!♡♡♡
That looks so yummy! Learning so much from you
Thanks!!! It's so good. Thanks for watching!
That looks delicious!!! I love caramel!! That would be great on ice cream!!! Thanks for sharing and stay safe!!

Yummy!!!!❤❤
It is so good!!
Perfection!
Thank you!!
👏🏾👊🏽❤️
I love dulce de leche waaaaay more than cajeta, where I’m from dulce de leche is our “peanut butter” for Americans.
We use it in cakes, cookies, bread, and many more uses.
I made some with a friends cows milk and I loved it!
I discovered cajeta when I got to the us 20+ years ago, but I thought …. Goats milk ? How dare they? 😂
Mexicans only have cajeta not dulce de leche (at their stores in Utah) and I resented them 😂😂😂
This one for the coffee sounds delicious and I’m willing to try it, for my coffee, not for my birthday cake 😂
In all seriousness, thanks for sharing this simple recipe!!! I’ve been saving them in playlists for when my girls are in milk ❤
Soooon!! We have less than a month before more babies on the ground here!!!
Girl, I love your zest for life! Your enthusiasm for your every day is inspiring. I love that dress btw. It looks so comfy. I see you wear it and have to say it is flattering and simply pretty. I love the goat shares. I wish I was as dedicated to farm animals as you are, but currently I just have chickens. Keep doing you girl! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!! This dress is starting to get holes but it's hard to tell because of the pattern haha
Oh my goodness! This sounds amazing! I do want to try this! But one I don't have goats milk 😂 and 2... I am on very low carbs 😂. I was letting myself... My weight get away... So I had to take control and I look and feel much much better. It's been a journey.😂
Oh yeah this is definitely not low carb lol
Yes, that looks amazing! I'm going to try making this with the raw sugar (succanat) I have because, well, I need to buy more honey soon 😅
Let me know how that turns out!!
That is awesome! I love how you're coming up with new ways to make items. I'm not a coffee guy but that looks really good! Great job Heather!! #50dollarfebruary2023
You know CZcams blocked this comment?? LOL I fixed it.
@@SageandStoneHomestead I better watch out and keep my comments not so controversial!!
LOLLL
That would be the exact consistency I would go for too. I LOVE when it works to substitute honey for sugar, I've really grown a taste for honey over sugar, especially in sweet tea!
Yum!! I'll have to remember that this summer! It's very nearly sweet tea season already!
@Sage and Stone Homestead heck yeah! For me personally I have to add a bit more honey than I would sugar, and remember it's best to add your honey while the tea still warm, or like before you add the rest of your water otherwise the honey gets really difficult to stir in.
❤! I had to subscribe.
Best video I've seen yet
Thank you so much, welcome to the channel!
Oh yeah. I gotta try this! Trying to get us off the store-bought creamer but hadn't found anything that worked for us yet. This very well might!
Let me know what you think!!! This is so amazing to be able to do from home and I'm sipping more Cajeta coffee now!!♡♡
Ahhh! I want to try this! I’m trying so hard to get away from preservatives. Excited to try this
Let me know what you think!!♡♡
My wife and I just made some and it tastes wonderful unfortunately we had to use store-bought milk it took about 30 minutes. we don't have goats yet looking to get three in just a few months (1 buck 2 does) thank you so much and keep up your awesome work!
YAY do you love it?!
Yes my wife and I love it tastes good in our coffee
😂😂 messes that's funny
Every. Time. Except this time lol
Your cajeta looks perfect! I've made it a couple times (using sugar because I was afraid the extended heating would turn the honey bitter) but mine got too thick when it cooled. My recipe did not call for the baking soda either. So I'm excited to try this again!! I did can mine up into jelly jars & it kept very well for over a year. Well......if we didn't get into it! 😋 Thank you for this recipe Heather! God bless!
Someone else mentioned canning it!! Did you waterbath it? The honey didn't get bitter at all but for me everything came together in 20 min. 2 hours may have done it in!!
@@SageandStoneHomestead take my word for it....2 hours DID IT IN!! 😂 I tried to follow that recipe to the letter!! 🤣 Yes, I water bathed it, worked great. Even though it was far too thick & I had to warm it in the microwave to get it out of the jar, the flavor was wonderful & it was so nice to have it on the shelf & ready!
Thats so great to hear!!! I'm thinking about canning it but probably would stick to sugar instead of honey for the canning. I mean it's basically milk jam, right? Lol
@@SageandStoneHomestead both times I made it, I tried to increase the recipe to make a large amount; I think that was what caused most of the trouble. Maybe doing smaller batches would be a wiser choice. FYI... learn from MY botch ups!! 😉
Good morning Heather. How are you all doing? That cajeta looks amazing. I was listening you talk about your Dutch oven. I've been looking for one and I came across a Ninja all purpose pot. Have you heard about these?I really want one but they are kind of pricey. Just thought you might like to check it out. Blessings. Love you guys
Oh does ninja have one that's a canner as well? I haven't looked into it much but there are many people who love their electric canners!!
I wonder if you could add cocoa powder in for a mocha flavor? This looks great.
Someone else said that! Such a great idea!!
I don't know that I could do honey in my coffee unless it's the way you are doing it.
I really enjoy it this way but I haven't loved it just added to the coffee out of the honey pot.
So glad I have found you. Loving your recipes! Does it taste as good with sugar, because honey is expensive.
Yes! Traditionally it is made with sugar
Could you make this with previously frozen goats milk?
I haven't tried but I don't see why not! Try a small batch!
If only I hadn't just gone back on Keto. Wonder if you can do it with Stevia?
Yeah I'm not sure if the carmelisation is from the sugar or the milk or both. When made with cane sugar the mixture is definitely more taffy-like and more dense. With honey it's almost like a whip. It's addicting lol.
Let me know if you do try it with stevia!
@@SageandStoneHomestead It will have to wait till I have a goat in milk again. 😉
I went and added the baking soda to the whole 4 cups of milk! OK, we’ll see what happens😂
How did it turn out?
@@SageandStoneHomestead I was able to get a small round from a small mold. Maybe about 2 inches high and maybe about 6 inches across something like that. So now I have it in my cool pantry room thinking about turning on a small fan in there. I have it on a bamboo roller thing inside of a protest bag that’s nylon. I think it turned out pretty good considering I had a cast-iron pot with about eight cans of coconut milk on top of it. There were no visible holes on the outside of the, I just had markings from the muslin. I didn’t have any annatto coloring so I had some paste that did not work. It’s sort of spotty over the cheese. Hope that doesn’t make it weird so I’m gonna turn it like you said and then I’m gonna put it in the small cooler I think I can control pretty much the temperature. I’m just gonna keep on making cheese so I can have it at hand. I tried to join your channel, but I can’t find out how to change my payment situation. I don’t really know where to go? So if you have any suggestions, I’m gonna join your channel. If you can point me in the direction to update my credit card. Actually debit card I don’t do credit cards anymore. So glad to hear your husband read the word of God! Bless your family thank you for your checking in on me. That is pretty amazing. I am new to Goats and I love them!
It ended up tasting delicious. 😋
The cajeta that is😋
@@SageandStoneHomestead delicious 😋
So the heating of the honey is okay?
Yes, just like boiling the raw milk changes things and kills off the good bacteria, I'm sure heating the honey harms some of the good enzymes and stuff but it should not make it harmful for you to eat. Raw versions of both are definitely ideal. ♡♡♡
Currently making this, I'm about 15 minutes in, and it's kinda curding. Is that normal? It smells amazing so there's that😅
I doubled the recipe, but added half a cup more milk because I didn't want to put that little bit back into the fridge... is that my problem? 😬
I haven't had it curdle but it could if the milk is older/more acid. It could still work though, let me know!!
@SageandStoneHomestead it thickened some, the curds didn't go away. I strained some of it to see, the liquid is still pretty thin, and has a string honey flavor, I'm thinking next time do a little less honey. The milk was 1-2 weeks old😬
Don't cook honey.
We get lots of raw honey in our diet as beekeepers. To use honey in this way is not bad for you. Does it kill some enzymes, sure. Is that a fine sacrifice to not use refined sugar? Absolutely.
