This Easy Paleo Honey Garlic Sauce is not only paleo but also AIP friendly! So easy with only 3 ingredients, and if you haven’t had the time to ferment the honey garlic, there’s an easy cheat!
A while back I posted a recipe for fermented honey garlic and an Instant Pot recipe for chicken lettuce wraps to go with it. For well over a year I have kept a jar of honey and garlic gurgling and making magic in my hall closet. This stuff is… magic… feeling a little sore throat, pop a couple of those lovely mild sweet cloves in your mouth and you’ll wake up feeling better!
I have been loving being in the new house, and have been inspired to cook, so I emptied my honey garlic jar to make a new batch and got to work recipe testing. The next night I dreamt of pork ribs (odd, I know) and when I came home from work one of my housemates had bought a package of ribs. So we tried the recipe that night for family dinner. Talk about serendipitous! Watch for that recipe in the very near future! In fact, check it out now: Easy Honey Garlic Ribs
In the meantime, get a batch of easy honey garlic sauce going and then put it on every. dang. thing.

Description
This Easy Paleo Honey Garlic Sauce is not only paleo but also AIP friendly! So easy with only 3 ingredients, and if you haven’t had the time to ferment the honey garlic, there’s an easy cheat!

- 1/2 cup fermented honey garlic (4–8 large cloves), and honey
- 1/2 cup coconut sauce- aminos
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
Combine ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend well!

Notes
If you are more of a Raj than a Holley, and you haven’t fermented honey garlic but you want to make this NOW, easy! Throw 2-4 large cloves of garlic in 1/3 cup raw honey with the coconut sauce-aminos and salt and blend. If you have the time to roast the garlic (or pressure cook for 10 minutes) it will help mellow out the flavor.

Does this change the carb count?
Does what change the carb count? Turning the honey garlic into a sauce? Honey will always be high in carbs, as it is a sugar. There isn’t much in the way of getting around that. 🙂
