- 1 cup ketchup
- ⅔ cup brown sugar alternatively, you can use maltose, honey, maple syrup, or molasses for a different flavor profile
Instructions
- Start by mixing together 1 cup of ketchup and ⅔ cup of brown sugar in a medium saucepan or skillet.
- Place the pan over medium heat and keep stirring until all the sugar has melted into the ketchup.
- Once the sugar is dissolved, let the sauce simmer gently for about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir it now and then so it doesn’t stick or burn. You’ll notice it thickening a bit.
- Take the pan off the heat and let the sauce cool down. Then pour it into a clean jar or container and pop it in the fridge.
