Hi Kegsy. I have never done this myself but if you just pierce the top can a couple of times with a can opener, put it in a saucepan & fill with water to just below the top of the can & leave to simmer for about 3-4 hours over a low heat this should achieve the same thing.

This looks unbelievably good. I don’t have a slow cooker, though. Is there another way of making the caramel?

Hi Kangli. Vanilla bean paste is just a really concenrated vanilla extract that has the vanilla seeds in it. I prefer the flavour but regular vanilla extract is perfectly fine. You can even omit the vanilla all together (the original recipe didn’t have any)
