- 2 peppers (finely minced) Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 0.5 tsp Ground cumin

In a medium saucepan, combine tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, and water. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Add the finely minced chipotle peppers along with the cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
Once simmering, reduce heat to low and let it cook for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure the flavors meld together evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed (add more chipotle peppers for extra spice or a bit more brown sugar for sweetness).
Remove from heat and let the ketchup cool to room temperature.
Transfer the ketchup to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to intensify.
