2tablespoonswater
Salt to taste
Instructions
Add the pumpkin puree, honey or maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, balsamic vinegar, coconut aminos, coconut oil or olive oil, molasses, garlic powder, onion powder, fresh ginger, and water to a medium saucepan.
Place the saucepan over medium heat. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients thoroughly. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Allow the sauce to simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency. Stir frequently to avoid burning and ensure an even texture.
Add salt to taste. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool. It will continue to thicken as it cools down.
Notes
Coconut aminos is often used as a soy sauce substitute, especially in gluten-free, Paleo, and AIP diets.
