Sweet & Spicy Adobo Sauce

We make this sweet and spicy adobo sauce to pair with our favorite baked, crispy cauliflower wings. It would also be great drizzled over a simple rice bowl, baked tofu, or steamed vegetables.

Made with just three simple ingredients — chipotle in adobo sauce, chili powder, and maple syrup — this sweet and spicy sauce comes together in less than five minutes!
