This Homemade Chipotle Ketchup is everything you have ever dreamed of. You know I absolutely love anything related to chipotle peppers, so I needed to make this Homemade Chipotle Ketchup. The chipotle peppers give the ketchup a nice smoky kick with a delicious spice. You can top this on eggs, burgers, fries and hot dogs.

I had been craving hamburgers and hotdogs for quite some time. So I made the most delicious Mushroom Burger.  This burger paired so well with my Homemade Chipotle Ketchup. This ketchup will put store bought ketchup to shame, trust me. The longer you let it simmer, to thicker it will become. Simmer to your desired consistency.

What you will need:

Chipotle: In the ethnic food section of your grocery store, you can find chipotle chilies in adobo, usually in a can.

Tomato puree: For best flavor, I love using the San Marzano canned tomatoes.

Sugar: I always use brown sugar for this ketchup. Granulated sugar might make it too sweet.

Vinegar: Apple cider vinegar is the way to go for this recipe. The ketchup will need an extra tang.

How to make this:

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Toss in the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until soft. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato puree, brown sugar, vinegar, chipotle chilies in adobo, salt, chili powder and stir to combine. Increase the heat to high heat and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes, until the sauce reaches a ketchup consistency.

Add everything into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and salt as needed. Mason Jars are your best friend when you make condiments like this! Put leftover sauce in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one month.
