Apple Barbecue Sauce

We also made this delicious barbecue sauce for Emma's birthday. The recipe from Effilee is in German, and I've translated it here for you.

Ingredients:
2 medium-sized sour apples
100 ml ketchup
1 tsp brown sugar
Juice from 2 lemons
Salt
Pepper
Paprika powder
Garlic
Cinnamon powder
Cayenne pepper

Directions:
1. Peel and dice the apples, and place them in a pot with a little water over a low flame. Cook until soft (like making apple sauce)
2. Add the ketchup, sugar, and spices (to taste) into the cooked apples.
3. Puree with a mixer.

Our notes on this recipe:

  • You only need juice from half a lemon. If you want it more lemony, then add more. But slowly!
  • We used two big apples
  • The barbecue sauce tastes much better after letting it sit overnight. 
  • Recipe filled one jar (something a little smaller than .5 L size)
  • Total cooking time was long. The apples took forever to become soft!
