Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Bourbon
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar substitute (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
- 2 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Xanthan gum
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add bourbon to the saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly and cook off the alcohol.
Stir in the brown sugar substitute and continue to cook until it dissolves completely.
Add the tamari, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Reduce the heat to low and let the glaze simmer gently for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens.
Sprinkle in the xanthan gum gradually while whisking continuously to prevent clumping. This will help thicken the glaze.
Continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the glaze reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the glaze from heat and let it cool slightly before using it as a coating or sauce for your favorite dishes.
If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
