Low Carb Blackberry BBQ Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 cups blackberries
• 1/2 cup reduced-sugar ketchup
• 1/4 cup tomato sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar replacement (such as Splenda Brown Sugar Blend)
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Pour blackberries into a saucepan and cook over medium heat until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes.

Stir ketchup, tomato sauce, brown sugar replacement, garlic, ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper into the blackberries; cook at a simmer until blackberries are completely tender, about 20 minutes.

Pour sauce into a blender no more than half full. Put lid on blender and hold in place with a towel. Pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.
