This from-scratch Espresso Salted Caramel Sauce is almost *too* easy to make.
You’re just five ingredients from making a batch of this sweet, salty and sticky sauce with a serious caffeine kick to it.
Chef Ryan Wiebe drizzles this stuff over French toast, but this sauce will also be best buds with apples, ice cream, cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, pretzels, pies, bananas – you get the idea.
Never used our Espresso Salt before? It’s made from fresh-roasted espresso and hand-harvested sea salt, creating a rich, dark, complex finishing salt that adds just the right amount of espresso flavor to savory and sweet dishes.
