I made this Easy Homemade Hazelnut Coffee Creamer recipe as part of a shop that has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions and the recipe are mine alone. #Keurig400 #CollectiveBias
Every hostess has their weaknesses and their strengths. My weakness is that my game plan usually falls apart somewhere between dinner and dessert and coffee. I make dessert ahead of time and I even have the coffee prepped, but I get lost in conversation during dinner and forget to actually make the coffee. Every.single.time. Fortunately, I have awesome friends who remind me when I forget to make the coffee and don’t mind pitching in to help get me back on track. I have forgotten to make the coffee so many times that one of the first things I say to my friends Marc and Colleen when they walk in the door is, “Remind me to make the coffee!”
I was thrilled to receive aKeurig 2.0! The new Keurig 2.0 has the ability to brew both a single cup and a four-cup carafe of coffee. It will allow my husband and I to make a pot of coffee to share while still allowingmy kids to make an individual cup of tea or hot cocoa.
Confession: I am really excited about the fact thatI can now set up a coffeebar and put my friends in charge of making their own coffee and tea at dinner parties. Remembering to make the coffee is no longer my responsibility when entertaining! Ha!
The Keurig should make our daily routines a little bit more lively. I have been in the habitof just buying one large package of medium roast coffee. I wanted to explore more flavors, but I was concerned about keeping multiple varieties of coffee fresh. Now we can experiment with different flavors ofK-Cup Packs and K-Carafe Packs without worrying about them going stale. Keurig offers 400 beverage varieties from 60 brands, so I am going to have fun trying to find a favorite.
I asked my daughter, who is on break from college, what coffee she wanted to try first and without hesitation she said Hazelnut. I decided to make Homemade Hazelnut Coffee Creamer to go with her coffee. Since I had never had hazelnut creamer before, my daughter served as my taste tester and let me know when it was perfect.My husband and I decided we needed to give Hazelnut Creamer a try to see what all the hoopla was about and discovered a new favorite creamer!
This homemade hazelnut coffee creamer recipe is really easy to make. You just need a can of condensed milk, 2 1/2 cups of milk, and hazelnut extract.

So, I have to use sweetened condensed milk? I want to make it sugar free. How do I go about making it sugar free. What kind of milk do I use in place of the condensed milk?

All Creamers have GMO, we used Coffee mate and found out that all store bought creamers have GMO.

Use sugar-free milk and use stevia to sweeten coffee

I make cinnamon and vanilla coffee creamer but I buy a bottle of Cinnamon and a bottle of French vanilla syrups from Torani.com they last for months and just put about a quarter cup of cinnamon to half a cup of French vanilla in a jug add maybe half a can of condensed milk stir well and top up to 32ozs with lactose free milk keeps in the fridge for couple of weeks
I also add a little to icing sugar and drizzle over my homemade Chelsea buns or cinnamon roll….delicious!Reply

I base it on the expiration date of the milk used to make the creamer.

Can you just use half n half for both milks? then add syrup?

I don’t think it would taste as good. Sweetened condensed milk is sweetened, half n half is not. I can not recommend a ratio of syrup to half n half without creating a new recipe. Also using syrup and half n half would be more expensive than this recipe.
