CAN I COOK THIS KETO BBQ SAUCE ON THE STOVE?
This recipe for Easy and quick keto sugar-free BBQ sauce is made without cooking by just combining all ingredients in a blender. If you want the flavors to mingle together a bit, I'd make this the day before you want to use it and refrigerate.
Alternatively, you can get a deeper, richer flavor by cooking, but it's certainly not required. Once you blend the ingredients together, pour in a saucepan over medium heat to bring to a simmer and cook about 5 minutes then cool and refrigerate.
WHAT IS YACON SYRUP?
Yacon syrup is extracted from the yacon plant found in Peru and Brazil. It looks and taste much like molasses. It does contain some fructose, but when used in very small amounts, it should not raise blood sugar levels. Perfect for adding a molasses flavor for recipes like caramel sauce or BBQ Sticky Wings.
CAN I REPLACE THE SWEETENERS USED?
One of our newer favorite low carb sweeteners that doesn't leave an aftertaste, is Better than Sugar by Sweetleaf. They have a confectioners powdered sweetener and they also have a granulated option. It's a combination of erythritol and stevia and has plenty of sweetness as sugar would provide. Unfortunately, they do not have a brown sugar sub yet so that is why I'm using Swerve here in this keto BBQ sauce recipe.
Swerve confectioners sweetener is also low carb, but doesn't have as much sweetness and you may need to use a bit more to get this as sweet as you like. I've added yacon syrup to elevate the deep molasses flavor I wanted for this BBQ sauce and it adds more sweetness than Swerve can provide alone.
Allulose would be another option, but again it isn't as sweet as using the Better than Sugar sweetener. Allulose comes in a liquid, and granulated form.
