Serves 8

Ingredients

Maple syrup
1 cup
Hot sauce
2 tablespoons (adjust to taste)
Apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon (adjust for desired spice level)
Salt
1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together beautifully.
  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken a bit as it cools.
  5. Drizzle the spicy maple syrup sauce over your favorite dishes such as pancakes, waffles, grilled chicken, or even roasted vegetables.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of bourbon or whiskey to the sauce while it simmers.
  • 💡 If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can blend the mixture after cooking for a few seconds to create a more uniform consistency.
  • 💡 Feel free to experiment with different types of hot sauce to find your perfect flavor match.
