Sugar Free Maple Bourbon Glaze

Sugar Free Maple Bourbon Glaze 2_Blog post 1200 x 675

I originally created this Sugar Free Maple-Bourbon Glaze for Easter Ham.

The bourbon in the glaze balances the flavors of the peppery brown mustard and the sweet sugar substitutes, making it delightful on a salmon filet, a meaty chicken thigh or barbecued into smoked turkey legs.

Glaze Your Meats

One benefit of using a sugar substitute is that they don't burn. You can apply your sugar-free glaze liberally throughout the cooking process without the fear of it burning.

I have a number of other ideas for this glaze, including smothered chicken thighs in the Instant Pot. I'll update this post once I've tried it.

What ideas do you have for using this sugar-free glaze? Share with me in the comments!

Why Two Sugar Substitutes and Not Just One?

I have combined my favorite sugar substitute, Bocha Sweet with a blend with erythritol to get the crunchy exterior as we would expect when using real sugar. Erythritol crystallizes beautifully, but used alone has a thin flavor that tastes off. Mixing it with Bocha Sweet provides a full flavor and some of the crunch we expect from a glaze.

Ingredients

  • ¼ Cup Water
  • ½ Cup Bocha Sweet
  • 1 Tbsp Butter
  • ¼ Cup Monkfruit Granulated Sweetener
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • ¼ Cup Bourbon
  • ¼ Tsp Allspice
  • ½ Tsp Maple Extract
  • ⅛ Tsp Xanthan Gum

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over low heat, stir together water and Bocha Sweet until granules are completely dissolved.
  • Remove pan from heat and whisk in the remaining ingredients.
  • Be careful addinging the xanthan gum because it tends to clump. You may need to use a blender or a immersion blender to completely mix in the xanthan gum! It can be tricky.
  • Your glaze is now ready for you to use. Apply liberally to meat during the cooking process.
