Creating your own vanilla coffee creamer at home is a piece of cake! Especially for my French Vanilla Coffee Creamer recipe. Only three ingredients, ready in minutes, and you can make it FAT FREE!
I’m no stranger to homemade coffee creamer recipes. If you wanted to try some new flavors, this Creme Brulee Coffee Creamer is rich and inviting. Another favorite is Chocolate Marshmallow Coffee Creamer. As delicious as it sounds!
Homemade Vanilla Coffee Creamer
So you all know I’m completely addicted to my morning coffee. But did you know I also have a flavored coffee creamer addiction?
I’m the one that heads to the grocery store for milk and coffee creamer. We run out of store bought coffee creamer as often as we run out of milk!
And I’m not particular about my creamer. I’ll purchase whatever creamer flavors are on sale. I’m willing to try any taste at least once!
But, while I may have three different flavors creamer on hand at any one time, French Vanilla coffee creamer is always in my fridge.
I recently shared my favorite homemade Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer. And it occurred to me, why haven’t I shared the easiest flavor, French Vanilla creamer?
Homemade Coffee Creamer 3 Ingredients
- Sweetened Condensed Milk– you can use any variety, including fat free!
- Milk- use what you love. Keep it fat free and use skim milk, make it creamier and use whole milk or heavy whipping cream!
- Vanilla Extract– adds the right amount of rich, vanilla flavor to the creamer! Almond extract adds a delicious depth of flavor too!
By using fat free sweetened condensed milk with fat free milk…you got it, you now have Fat Free French Vanilla Coffee Creamer.
How to Make French Vanilla Coffee Creamer
This recipe for homemade coffee creamer is so easy. 3 ingredients, mix and shake.
- Combine all 3 ingredients in large mason jar. Shake vigourously. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- I keep mine in quart mason jars, great for storing in the fridge.
- You should mix this homemade vanilla creamer before using it because the sweet milk settles at the bottom. Using a mason jar can make it easier to mix.
- I found some cute chalkboard label stickers at Target and use them on my jars. If company comes over, pouring into a cute pitchers is simple!
- This also makes a great gift idea for that coffee addict friend or hostess. Maybe with a cute mug and specialty bag of coffee (do you need my address??).

French Vanilla Coffee Creamer Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 can Fat Free sweetened condensed milk 14 ounce
- 1 ½ cup fat free milk skim
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine all three ingredients in a large mason jar (quart size).
- Add lid and shake vigorously. Use within one week. ENJOY.
Notes
- Combine all 3 ingredients in large mason jar. Shake vigourously. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- I like to store mine in quart size mason jars. Perfect for keeping in the fridge. You do need to stir or shake this creamer before each use, as the sugary milk sinks to the bottom (which makes a mason jar all that more useful)! I found some cute chalkboard label stickers at Target and use them on my jars. If company comes over, pouring into a cute pitchers is simple!
- This also makes a great gift idea for that coffee addict friend or hostess. Maybe with a cute mug and specialty bag of coffee.
- Use regular sweetened condensed milk and whole milk for a thicker, creamier coffee creamer if desired.
Just made my first bath and I have to say I am very pleased! I love knowing what is in the products I consume and I love making kitchen staples homemade. Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome 🙂
Hi Aimee,
I just saw this recipe and am so happy to try it out. The Coconut creamer we usually buy has not been in any stores recently, so I’m driven to try this out. Question: Why only 1 gr. of sugar in each Tbsp? With a whole can of Sweetened condensed milk? How does each Tbsp. only have 1 gr. of sugar in it ? Thanks a bunch
Sometimes my nutrition calculator (which automatically does it) is wrong. I always encourage people to do their own calculations. You can find fat free and splenda condensed milk.
Aimee I’m the only one who use creamer so my question is can I freeze half of it so it doesn’t spoil before a week is up?
🥹 joy
I have not tried freezing it. But if you do, please report back how it turns out!
Hi Aimee
I put it in my coffee and it was delicious thank you so much
This is a brilliant idea. I’m the only one who has creamer in my coffee so I was concerned about waste. I’ll pour these into my souper cubes and keep a small amount in a bitty mason jar for daily use. Thank you!
LOL I’ve been making my own for years now. Same ingredients except the milk, I buy the boxes of milk at Dollar store.
Omg…this is better than store bought!! I ran out of creamer today. Said there has to be a way to make it. I’m a 60 percent creamer 40 percent coffee so I love my creamer lol and this!!! Is!! It!! Making my own from now on!! Making your Almond Joy creamer next month!! Delicious 😋😋
Love to hear it! Thanks for the review 🙂
I have been making your recipes for YEARS and love it so much! I prefer it to any other store bought brand. I am also trying to use less plastic, so this really helps with that. For me, it works best to add all ingredients to a bowl with a spout, whisk everything together and then add to my storage container.
This is wonderful to hear, thank you!
I’m drinking this now in a mug of coffee with a cinnamon stick. It’s decadent. Be advised, however, that shaking vigorously before use really does make a difference.
Glad you’re enjoying the creamer!
I pay $8.00 sometimes more for French vanilla coffee creamer from coffee mate. We ran out this morning and my husband is very particular. He won’t let me buy a cheap brand or try to make some, but today is the day! He will only have the French vanilla, coffee, mate creamer. I usually have to buy four or five containers every couple weeks I’m so glad I found your recipe. It’s awesome in my coffee and I put it in my frothing machine it tastes fabulous! Thanks for sharing. I will save a lot of money now!
So happy to hear it!
Oh Aimee,
Thank you so much for this recipe this made my budget as a single mother so much easier thank you so much and all your other recipes ugh they just make my life that much more simple and more time with my children
You’re quite welcome! Have a great day 🙂
I made and loved it. I’m doing weight watchers do trying to get a point equivalent but the calories don’t match. Is the nutritional value correct!
Every product is different, and the calculator for my website can sometimes spit out wonky numbers. I suggest you use myfitnesspal or another more reliable calorie counter.
Tastes delicious, but confused on calories? Sweetened condensed milk has an insane amount of calories like over 1000. And this recipe says the whole can plus calories from milk is is 288 calories for the entire recipe?
Unbelievable! It is just perfect!!!! And fat free. With NO weird chemicals. You’re a genius. Drizzling over strawberries now.
My favorite way to enjoy coffee!
Hi, Amy. Your recipe for French vanilla creamer has made me a believer in homemade is best! Not to mention the $$$ I will save. I tasted it against the store bought kind and there’s NO comparison. It tastes like premium vanilla ice cream. I’m sold!! Thank you for sharing.
We couldn’t agree more. You’ll have to try some of our other homemade flavors next!
Better than store bought! And I feel better about drinking it and not putting weird chemicals and vegetable oils from store bought in my body.
