Instructions

Combine Ingredients: In a medium pot set over medium heat, add all the ingredients together and stir well to combine everything evenly.
Simmer the Sauce: Bring the mixture to a low boil, continuing to stir frequently. Let it stew for about 5 minutes so the peaches soften and flavors meld together.
Blend Until Smooth: Use an immersion blender directly in the pot to puree the sauce until smooth and free of lumps. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the hot mixture to a heat-proof blender and blend until smooth.
Serve or Store: Serve the sauce immediately over grilled meats like wings or chicken. Any unused sauce should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later use.

Notes

Substitute garlic and olive oil with garlic-infused olive oil for a milder garlic flavor.
Use coconut sugar as a natural alternative to brown sugar.
This sauce can be served warm or cold depending on your preference.
Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Perfect accompaniment for grilled chicken, pork, wings, or tofu.
