EASY HOMEMADE KETCHUP (NATURALLY SWEETENED!)



Easy Homemade Ketchup (Naturally Sweetened!) image

Easy, homemade ketchup made in 1 pot with simple ingredients! Naturally sweetened, tangy, and bright with tomato flavor! Perfect for burgers, fries, and beyond!

Provided by Minimalist Baker

Categories     Condiment

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (14-ounce) can tomato purée or crushed tomatoes ((make sure the only ingredient is tomatoes!))
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp garlic powder
3/4 tsp sea salt
1 pinch allspice

Steps:

  • If using crushed tomatoes and you want very smooth ketchup, place all ingredients in a small blender and blend until creamy and smooth. Otherwise, proceed to step 2.
  • Place all the ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir until well combined, then turn the heat on medium low. Stir gently until everything comes to a light simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low.
  • Let simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until slightly reduced and darkened in color, stirring every 10-15 minutes to prevent sticking.
  • Once reduced, use a teaspoon to remove a spoonful from the saucepan, and let it cool on the counter - you want to taste it cooled for accurate adjustment! Taste and adjust if desired, adding salt to taste, more vinegar (1 Tbsp at a time) for tang, more maple syrup for sweetness, or more onion powder for more savory notes.
  • Enjoy with French fries, vegan burgers, breakfast sausage, and beyond! Will keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 2 months (frozen into ice cube molds).

HOMEMADE KETCHUP



Homemade Ketchup image

This ketchup does come close to those name brands in terms of taste, texture and color. I've never had a tomato paste-based ketchup that I liked, so I decided to cook down crushed tomatoes instead. By using the slow cooker, we take most of the labor out of the process.

Time 12h10m

2 (28 ounce) cans peeled ground tomatoes

⅔ cup white sugar
¾ cup distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 ¾ teaspoons salt
⅛ teaspoon celery salt
⅛ teaspoon mustard powder
¼ teaspoon finely ground black pepper
