The best vegan spaghetti sauce makes a beautifully simple bowl of pasta. This delicious one-pot, five-ingredient sauce is gluten-free, oil-free, soy-free, and nut-free.
Add crushed red tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper to a large pot. Stir well to combine.
Turn on heat to medium-high and bring to a gentle boil.
Partially cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 45 minutes for a typical spaghetti sauce consistency, or for 60 minutes if you want it thicker.
Finally, stir in Simple Homemade Date Syrup and turn off the heat. Let it hang out uncovered for another 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Leftovers/Meal Prep: This vegan spaghetti sauce stores well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Or freeze for up to four months. To reheat from frozen, thaw the sauce in the refrigerator and then warm it up on the stove. Alternatively, microwave at reduced power in a microwave safe container.
