This BBQ sauce does have a slight kick. If you aren’t fond of spicy omit or cut down on the red chili flakes.
Tips for Making Vegan BBQ Sauce:
-
I highly recommend using a good quality organic ketchup without any added preservatives, corn syrup, etc. for the best taste results. This is one of my favorites.
-
The coconut sugar can be replaced with maple syrup or honey, if you prefer.
-
For a sugar-free version of this vegan barbecue sauce, I recommend this ketchup and this sugar-free sweetener for replacing the coconut sugar and maple syrup.
-
I do not recommend omitting or substituting any of the spices as that is what makes this a well-rounded and flavorful sauce! 🙂
-
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
