In a medium saucepan, combine tomato paste, water, and white vinegar. Stir well to create a smooth mixture.
Add erythritol, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and freshly ground black pepper to the saucepan.
Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well combined and the erythritol is dissolved.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer the ketchup for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the ketchup and adjust seasoning if needed. You may add more salt or a pinch of erythritol to suit your taste.
Once the ketchup has thickened to your desired consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Allow the ketchup to cool slightly, then transfer it to a sterilized jar or bottle.
Let the ketchup cool to room temperature before sealing tightly and storing it in the refrigerator.
The homemade low-carb ketchup will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Stir well before each use.
