Servings: 1 pint
Author: Rick Browne

Ingredients

  • 12 oz tomato Passata alternates: Hunt’s or Muir Glen organic tomato paste
  • ½ cup apple cider vinegar
  • cup powdered erythritol or sweetener of choice, preferably powdered
  • 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp hickory smoke flavoring OR 1 tsp liquid smoke nutritional calculations based on liquid smoke
  • 2 tsp. smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp. onion powder
  • ½ tsp. sea salt
  • 1 ½ cup water approximate amount - see instructions
  • ¼ tsp. cayenne pepper optional

Instructions

  • Whisk all ingredients together in a saucepan, adding the water last. Start with a cup of water, then whisk in a little at a time until it reaches a consistency that is slightly thicker than barbecue sauce. I ended up using 1 cup of water, but I like thick sauce.
  • Bring to a gentle boil at medium-high heat, whisking continuously, then reduce to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  • Taste and adjust sweetener or cayenne pepper if you prefer the sauce to be sweeter or spicier. If it's still thicker than you like, you can stir in additional water, a tablespoon at a time, until reaching desired consistency.
  • Bottle and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

This recipe will make approximately one pint of sauce, which will yield approximately 32 tbsp of sauce. One serving size is 1 tbsp, which is approximately 13 calories and 5 net carbs.
